After having done zero research, having Mobil on the bonnet and Mega fuels on the side feels counter intuitive. They don't compete?

Mobil 1 is on the bonnet and sides, and Mega is a fuel supplier who drive tankers up to heavy machinery to fill them with diesel. Conceptually for different applications, but in a similar family of products.

Perhaps the Mobil fuels business imports/supplies ex-terminal the diesel fuel for the Mega network?

The end plates look nothing short of ridiculous. Obviously an unfortunate by product of aero parity based on the original cotf FG.

Hopefully the Camaro becomes a reality and we can reset the aero requirements and roll cage to suit the cars. Not the other way around.

Seems with most Holden teams white is the new black and they're copying design elements from the Red Bull HRT cars.

Wonder if the "Available at Bunnings" part of the Irwin deal will mean there is a Sengled sticker on Mr Winterbottom's car?

Looks like something the ricer / time attack crowd stick on their cars. Supercars trying to appeal to a new demographic?

The white rear part of the Cooldrive with the white is very similar to how the white rear of the RB-HRT is designed. Some of the design lines of the IRWIN livery look like they're somewhat similar to RB-HRT's as well.
