New-look Erebus Camaros revealed in Perth
Erebus reveals new-look Camaros in Perth
Brodie Kostecki to race 2014-inspired throwback livery
Jack Le Brocq picks up BIC naming rights
Erebus Motorsport has revealed two new-look Camaros for this weekend's Bosch Power Tools SuperSprint, featuring a throwback livery for reigning champion Brodie Kostecki.
The team carried TFH Hire Services naming rights at the first three rounds on both Chevrolets, but both cars will have a new look in Perth.
TFH branding will remain on Kostecki's #1 entry, albeit on the windscreen banner. The champion's car will carry Erebus Motorsport branding down the side, while car numbers and SS Signs branding will feature on both bonnets.
The Kostecki livery is a throwback to the colours carried by Lee Holdsworth, who delivered the team's first win in a Mercedes E63 at Winton Motor Raceway in 2014. All Erebus cars and the team's history have recently been compiled into a limited-edition book.
The original livery was inspired by the film Tron, but Kostecki will have a point of difference, with the champion's #1 emblazoned across the sides of his Chevrolet.
"We wanted to do something to mark Brodie’s return but the timeline leading up to Taupo was difficult and as we head to Darwin next, Perth presented the ideal opportunity," Erebus CEO Barry Ryan explained.
"Reflecting on some of the team’s past liveries while we were working on the book, the 2014 car remains one of Betty’s [Klimenko, team owner] favourites.
“The #1 on the door is something we know Supercars fans have all been saying they want to see and with Perth being Brodie’s home round there couldn’t be a better place to run this car.
“A big thanks to all of our partners for their continued support and we’re looking forward to what is set to be a big weekend in the west."
Jack Le Brocq's car will carry BIC signage, with Orafol branding to feature on the right rear quarters of both cars.
“I’m really proud to represent BIC and their products have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember," said Le Brocq, who is seventh in the points.
“Most families would have BIC in their homes without even realising it. With everything from their trusty BIC Cristal ballpoint and 4 Colours pens to their versatile lighter range. I know I give their razors a good workout keeping this noggin aerodynamic!
“After talking to the legends at SS Signs and the guys and gals in the team, we set out to create a race car that would grab attention and reflect the essence of the BIC brand which is all about experiencing joy from simplicity.
“The outcome is bloody awesome; it looks snazzy and fast and I reckon it's gonna be a ripper out on track."
“A big thanks to all of our partners for their continued support and we’re looking forward to what is set to be a big weekend in the west.”
