And in this week's AA magazine... confirmation that Broad IP will not be seen on the side of the FPR car again.... something about having to spend the money on building the base business....

A big "GT" badge, like the one on the 3rd FPR car of 2003 shall replace the sponsorship branding on the side of the #5 car.....

Sparklehorse should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I am of the opinion that Ford and FPR should use that space to promote charity's and non profit organisations..

I sent them an email which was answered by a bot.

Somehow the message could get through to them.

Actually we are overlooking the most obvious...

The car shall be #5 right?

What better piece of ambush marketing (better than a Holdenberg) than paint the #5 FPR car in the colours of the Peter Brock Foundation...

....and announce that for every lap led/finished/shown on the box, Ford will donate $500 per lap to the Foundation.

The Energy Of Caring sounds like a nice place to play...

peckstar has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
GTR i think what you meant to say was:

"In line with FPR's now well established tradition of returning the legendary Ford GT to the Bathurst 1000, the Ford Credit FPR Falcon will carry retro-styled GT signage at Bathurst"
