Teams Yet to Launch

What teams are there left to launch their new designs?
I can think of Shell,GRM,LMS,Speedy.

That's what i was referring to GTR. I think there is some difference with the DJR cars this year.

Has Thekko still got Pepsi to sponsor him, or will it be his personal bank account once again?

The Pepsi thing fell over... having a contract with Coke usually means you cant deal with other beverage companies...

Thexton isn't entirely self-funded as there are sponsors.

The Pepsi deal wasn't for huge money. GTR will remember the figure....?

I was Told Thextons Team are releasing new paint job and Livery very soon - expect panels to have Dents already in them - to save him track time and allow him to concentrate on driving.

There is a pic of the 2004 VYs in MN today, interestingly the front guards, and front spoiler were white but not the same colour as the rest of the car, which suggests to me that both cars being tested are converted VXs not genuine VYs at all....

BJR will launch before the AGP, with a similar sponsor package to 2003, although there may be some re-alignment of support sponsors into more significant roles

Just not revealing the livery i reckon GTR. One team car is a genuine VY, we all know that. Whether that car is one in the pic is not known though.

Perhaps they have the luxury of a spare again this season... funny that KKRT can have that 2 years in a row, while PWR doesnt have such a luxury....

I guess it works in cascades... 4 cars for SHRT, 3 for KKRT, 2 for PWR, 1 for Tasman.. oops

The HRT VX's had the air jack nozzle in the B-pillar, whereas, due to a change in rules commencing 2003, the VY's have the nozzle in the rear door window...

The launch car was a converted VX (or earlier)...

Have not seen AA yet, so don't know what that car is...

Cheers
Leigh

I think that they are actual VY's, and that the 'different colour' is undercoat/primer, suggesting that their paintscheme will be a little different than last year. I stand to be corrected though.

On Greg Murphy's fan club website, he said something along the lines that the paint job will be different - to some degree
