Brad Jones Racing will have another new look for this weekend's Ipswich Supersprint after it was confirmed that Dunlop Tyres have given their official backing to Nick Percat's Holden VF Commodore.
Dunlop Tyres have been an integral part of Australian Motorsport, with their industry-leading innovative tyre designs and development keeping them at the forefront of motorsport. They have supported BJR over the years and 2017 marks their 16th season supplying the Virgin Australia Supercars Championship and the recently re-named Dunlop Super2 Series Championship.
“It's always exciting to reveal the new livery before each event,” Nick said. “The yellow on this is really bright and bold, it definitely won't be missed on track. The Dunlop team that work with us at the track constantly engage with drivers and teams to ensure we're getting the most of the tyres. At the end of the day our Dunlop tyres are what is in between us and the road, so performance and reliability is key. When you've got good tyres, it gives you confidence to push the car harder and make more passes. That's what the fans love to see.”
Fans will get the chance to meet Nick Percat and see the #8 Dunlop Super Dealer Commodore up close at the Supercars Coates Hire Community Day, this afternoon from 4pm-5pm at Coates Hire, 43 Lobb St, Churchill.
The Dunlop Super Dealer Commodore will hit the track Friday with Nick's co-driver Macauley Jones behind the wheel for the first outing, the additional driver practice session
