SBR Sponsor Monday

Team website says SBR will announce its replacement sponsor for Pirtek next Monday 12 noon. Supporters are invited to the team workshop for the announcement (no over the top glamour for SBR!). No mention of driver, MN says "still being sorted, though all points to Courtney". Sponsor? Is Stegbar big enough to step up a level? Either way good news.

That announcement date/time will also see the unveiling of the livery for the #4 Ford Falcon, as well as, the unmasking of their new driver for the 2006 V8 Supercar Series and beyond.........

And SBR reckon they were shocked with Pirtek's sudden withdrawl. That would have to be a record time for finding new sponser if they only just found out.

Fark, how can you expect a stunning livery when it has only been days.

Is James Courtney in Australia?

Peter Allen married Liza Minella - that didn't stop him batting for the other team though.

My mail has Courtney not even being at Indy (although he is in the country).

Can anybody confirm a sighting at all ?

Well if it wasn't James Courtney, it must have been his twin brother or someone cloned him, because there was a fella that looked like him dressed in HRT gear and knew how to speak Japanese

You could, but it would be far more likely to see Toll on the Toll Commodore, and Enzed on the BOC Falcons.

If you read the press release on the V8supercar website the corporate colours of SBR's new sponsor is blue and isn't familiar to the series so you can probably count out Stegbar.

It says, "Pirtek’s unexpected withdrawal opened the way for one of the existing secondary supporters on Ambrose’s Falcon to step in as primary backer of the new car from next year".

It actually says the name won't be familiar because its part of a rebranding, I noticed Jeld-wen on the Stegbar website?
