Brad Jones Racing reveal new livery for Toyota Bathurst debut
Macauley Jones/Jordan Boys to be backed by Automotive Superstore
On-track action begins at Mount Panorama on Thursday
Brad Jones Racing will welcome back a familiar backer for their first Bathurst assault as a Toyota team.
The #96 Toyota GR Supra of Macauley Jones/Jordan Boys will don the black, yellow, and white colours of Automotive Superstore at the Repco Bathurst 1000.
Automotive Superstore is Australia's leading online auto parts retailer, with the livery brought together using 3M films and premium PPG paints.
Jones will be looking to improve on a solid showing in 2025, qualifying 11th and running solidly in the top 10 before being caught out by the wet weather.
"We've worked with Automotive Superstore for a number of years, and they're a team that genuinely lives and breathes cars and racing, that passion comes through in everything we do together," said the driver of the #96 Toyota.
"This livery translates brilliantly to the Supra. The colours and lines really pop, and I honestly can't wait to see it tearing up the Mountain.
"It's been a bit of a rollercoaster with the Supra this year, but I feel we are really starting to click with it now. I'm pumped to get to Bathurst, hopefully we'll see plenty of Toyota flags flying up the top of the Mountain!"
Team owner Brad Jones added: "Bathurst is such a special time of year, and Automotive Superstore truly get that. They understand what this race means to our team and to the fans, and having them back onboard as naming rights partner for another year says everything about that commitment.
"This is our first crack at Bathurst with the Supra and while there'll be a few unknowns, we've put in serious groundwork and the team has been flat out making sure we squeeze every bit of potential out of this package.
“We've already seen what the Supra can do in the Enduros, we know what it's capable of. Now it's about nailing all the 1%'s and hitting the ground running."
Fans can get their first glimpse of the Automotive Superstore Supra at Wednesday's Track to Town parade from 5:30pm AEDT, before the opening practice session of the Repco Bathurst 1000 on Thursday at 1:30pm AEDT.
