BRT unveils striking twin Indigenous liveries
Blanchard Racing Team reveal striking split Indigenous liveries
Presten Warren design "Two Tribes' adorns Mustangs of James Courtney, Aaron Cameron
Courtney swaps usual teal for an orange base representing desert soil
Blanchard Racing Team have unveiled striking split liveries for this weekend's Indigenous Round at the betr Darwin Triple Crown.
Designed by Kokatha, Mirning, Wirangu, Arabana, and Dieri artist Presten Warren, the design entitled 'Two Tribes' has been split across both the #3 and #7 BRT Mustangs of James Courtney and Aaron Cameron.
The liveries for BRT represent Warren's connection to the desert and saltwater countries, with the work placing a river at it's heart, which pieces together elements of shared origins, connection, and movement.
The design also represents unity, love, and the beauty that forms when two worlds meet, celebrating Warren's blended heritage between land and sea, tradition and modern life, cultural roots and contemporary expression.
The usual teal of Courtney's Snowy River Caravans Mustang has been replaced by an orange representing the desert soil of inland Australia.
Courtney, who is coming off claiming BRT's first ever Supercars podium in Perth, says that he is excited to race in his special livery.
"We're heading into Darwin not only with high spirits from our Perth success but with a deeper sense of purpose," remarks Courtney.
"I've always believed that racing is more than just speed and competition; it's about the stories we tell and the legacy we leave,"
"The liveries tell a powerful story of connection and camaraderie that I'm proud to share as we race under the Darwin sun."
Cameron maintains the blue hues of CoolDrive Auto Parts, as he gears up to make his maiden appearance at Hidden Valley Raceway.
"I feel privileged to participate in the Indigenous Round with such a special livery on the CoolDrive Racing Mustang,” said Cameron.
“It adds an extra layer of significance to every lap we complete."
Co-Team Principal Tim Blanchard, who will also be racing in the Trans Am support category this weekend, thanked Warren for the design.
"We are incredibly proud to carry Presten’s work into the race weekend,” said Blanchard.
“His art not only decorates our cars but brings forward an important narrative about cultural unity and the beauty of combining different worlds."
On-track action in Darwin begins on Friday.
