Go to the "Partners" page, there are 18 listed, yes 18.
Then go back to Home page and section "help get Stevie Johnson into Mustang Sally"
He is begging for money so Johnson can have pleasure of driving at Darwin.
I think it is disgusting this call on public to support Johnson's enjoyment when Bowe has so many "partners".
Surely there are more deserving causes in motor racing to call on the public purse......

I think the point from JB was that everyone kept asking him to put Steve in the car, so he asked for financial help to do so. There was no obligation on anyone to give money to this, totally the choice of those who did.
If you want to help someone else, there's nothing stopping you from doing that.

Perhaps Mr John can drag the TKR 2005 Bathurst wreck around the country again, for another begathon

Getting back to the original question Bowe's transporter normally carries the Wilson Security Ride car as well as his race car. Not sure what they have this year but in years past it was an FPV GT.

Wow, next we'll be saying that 888 shouldn't need extra sponsors to run CL/SvG in the 3rd car next year because they already have enough "partners" (they have 21 on their website)

Maybe our friends over at Speedcafe have registered our interest in race transporters too and are doing stories accordingly:

PRA extends Western Star deal:

Saw a full "Debranded" Bdouble transporter trailer set up (looked rather black and seemed to have maybe had VIP branding removed) out the front of Brown and Hurley Yatala today? Was minus the Prime mover. So someone has a new transporter!

DAVID PATERSON · 14 Jul 2015, 23:21 (Ref:3558643)

I saw the Lightning McQueen transporter travelling southbound through Brisbane's northern suburbs late last night.

Umai Naa · 14 Jul 2015, 23:36 (Ref:3558646)

Was it a Mack, or a Peterbilt?

How about this for a piece of history, a blast from the past...

I recall it in Valentine Greetings colours... jeez must have been 1983/4 or so..

Just looking at the images of the Transporters parade at Ipswich, and I am intrigued as to why one car teams need a B Double transporter.

Examples are Bottle-O, NZ Black and Tekno.

Why do they need such a setup?

ForumNick · 30 Jul 2015, 07:33 (Ref:3562376)

IIRC... the REC regs require them.

But Dale Woods only uses an ordinary semi and not a B Double

Does Bottle-O carry Waters car?
