According to this: PRA-to-become-Tickford-Racing-in-2018

Tickford Racing has a Blue Logo...


Quotes from the Article:

“We made sure we kept blue in our logo as we know the fans love it,” Nash added.

“They want to see blue in our logo and on the grid and it nicely provides a constant link to our past and what we represent.


... maybe the Tickford on the bonnet is advertising the Road Car Business, not the race team ?

Reynolds/Youlden Set To Continue

Its funny though, in the short video clip the team shared about the Bathurst win, there is a piece where Mr Youlden asked to get out of the car... not sure if that was fitness, discomfort in traffic or some other thing... byt could explain why Mr Reynolds could favour Mr Brown...

At the right price anything will sell. And have any of you driven an Avalon?

Pity though, the Maxima was a good thing

The Altima has had a pretty heavy revision since it was last on sale in AUS.

Anybody that knows anything about cfd, it is useless without validation so not usable for that sort of testing.
