So who is the main sponsor...



... at speed its hard to tell...

I still dont understand SuperCheap's branding choice. The stores are largely signwritten in white type face on a red background. Easy to read. But other than the PWR & SER versions of the livery, they have not been racing that way...

PWR


SER

Interesting to see that none of the 4 DJR 'Superteam' entries are running 'Ford' windscreen signage. There are smaller Ford logos on the front splitter & rear bumpers of each car.

Are they receiving the same level of funding from Ford as in past years?

peckstar has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
just got back, left after the track walk

had lots of fun

crowd was big, most of the crowd was not in the grand stand they were in the pits or on the fence. parking was not to bad, extreme lack of food services, massive lines, so i didnt bother, they were selling Carlton draught at the bar, just as an observation.

interesting that in the pits the 17 and the 18 were grouped and the 12 and the 49 were grouped, so Jim beam was split

another observayion wa the car park was full of mercedes, just an observation

triple 8 cars are bright, nothing more to add on that, ok maybe i will add but unattractive.

on the pit walk the triple 8 cars were fenced off, apparantly they are too precious to touch, where as every other car you could get up close to, they were also the first to leave the pit walk.

spike to Holdo, welcomed him aboard, but he was the last car to turn up at the pit walk

was a little bit suprised by the lack of merchandise, even posters or sticker

had a good day though

not arguing with your stat sheep stations, but all 3 of those teams finsished outside the 20 last year
all three of those teams are there because they have money, not because they know how to go racing

Qualifying at Clipsal will reveal the reality GTR, I am not sure you can attach too much importance to todays times.

Both Tekno cars performed well as did the new DJR outfit

Bit underwhelmed by Premat all though i think he will definitely find his feet mid season

Cant help but think that Reindler will suffer as the kellys focus on Nissan and not expecting much from BJR garrage this year

It might 'just' be testing, but if you are at the bottom of the sheets, and dont think you have work to do... then optimism is definitely your friend!

Not cool if the car that was displayed at launch day changes when Clipsal comes around.

sorry, i meant the yellow paint on the wheels was dodgy looking up close

the actual car it self looked good

im assuming the windscreen banner might be similar over the team or at least the actual DJR cars
