I notice the FG has a support in the middle of the splitter like the AU had (I think it was the AU), that's a shame it spoils the appearance.

The livery looks good but I prefer the green of the PCR machines.

My Favourite 08 moment was when Courtney/Besnard comeback drive at Bathurst. Courtney raced through to dominate the opening stint had 15 sec. gap to Lowndes who was in 2nd. In the 2nd stint a slowly deflating tyre (originally diagnosed as a damaged anti-roll bar) slowed Besnard's stint in Courtney's car allowing Whincup to assert dominance over the field rest of the race. On lap 160 S.Richards, fading badly on rear tyres was unable to stop Courtney move into 3rd place.

Its not a mid-splitter 'support' Its the Brake Cooling Duct!

(its the angle of view - look at the left side, you can just see the inside edge of the other duct)

Yuck!

Why not one black and gold car, and one red and white (or black)?

White, gold and black is REALLY tacky.

...Actually on second thoughts it's okay but what's the advantages of having different colour stripes on each car, what a waste of time! Either put different products on them, or the team look I reckon.

I guess the gold represents JC's pay packet?

It is at Dreamworld on Monday night

Which means it is an after hours thing, so not open to the public

They both look pretty good but I prefer the Courtney car, although it helps that the 'Jim Beam' signage fits better on the left hand side of the car than the right.

The red on the Johnson car looks a bit pink. Maybe we need to see other pics?

IMHO, I reckon that's awful. The Jim Beam signage is too squashed up on the sides of the cars. What ever happened to the saying, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it?" Last year's cars were beautifully presented. I would've prefered to see them again for this year. This is a backward step in DJR's livery standards, and a big one at that.
