00 XR8 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Britek Launch Wednesday 16/02

Incase anyone doesn't know, the Britek Motorsport livery is due to be unveiled tomorrow.

Fujitsu as we know are the major sponsor, but also expect to see Coffey Ford, SonyWega Plasmavision, Penrite, Nova, Kincrome, Classic Carlectables, Sonax, CAT, Spy+, FPV and of course Ford as subsidiary backers.

As for the look of the car, well, I have seen it and let’s just say that it doesn’t look anything like the DJR Fujitsu cars of last year (unfortunately).

And I beg Britek to switch to white wheels before they arrive at the AGP, the black ones look horrible…………..

I tis not a shocking livery, but I just really think anything with black wheels is ugly.

Wait until tommorow before you decide if you like it or not. I love the look of an AU XR and think VT/VXs look like big pieces of lard, so maybe my opinion isn't that of the general public...................

His Indy Lights car was predominantly blue, with a little bit of white - red for the sponsors?

It's in AA today. Blue quarters, red sides bonnet and roof. Fujitsu Aircon major sponsor, with NGK, kincrome, nova, sonax, penrite, classic collectables, coffey ford, protec, fpv, eibach, and one more I can't read. There's also a bit of metallic grey in the scheme as well. Wheels are dark metallic as well.

There's also another sponsor on the bottom rear bumper I can't read. No Skilled anywhere to be seen.

A couple more. Plasmavision on the bonnet and Windscreens ASAP on the windscreen.

Not that you can see much but it may give some idea as to how it looks.

I think the Fujitsu Plasmavision thing was probably worth a bit more than what Sony could provide....

All we need now is to get Tubby Taylor in as an enduro driver...

I think it looks ok actually - something different.

Plenty of sponsors onboard too! How did Bright manage that?

FPR must have cleaned out some old wheels from the store room, along with the un-wanted body shells
