Ozemail black and white

Ozemail have launched there new colours and have decided to give John Bowe and Brad Jones 2 different colour schemes. I think it is a great idea and easy to tell who is who. Bowe is in the black car. The chanel 10 comentary team will still have trouible working out who is who though

I like how they've still retained the white wheels on 88. Does anyone else hate black wheels?

Apparently they cant read the numbers as new CAMS' stipulations call for all numbers to be black on a white background. But then AVESCO may not have to comply.

Aussie 05 has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Good idea but i don't like Bowe's black car.

Even if AVSCO had a copy of the new rule book ,it wouldn't make any difference I bet , as they would not do something as simple as follow the rules like everyone else. CAMS are all too soon to jump up and down on the poor club racer if he so much as gets one thing wrong. These guys are meant to be professionals, aren't they??????

Think I prefer the white car to the black one ... but will hold final judgement until we see 'em live at Melbourne in one week's time.

AA seemed to try and give the opinion that no one has ever done this before.

Remember Perkins (black) and Ingall (silver) in 2000

I like the black car, I think it looks a little better in fact. Black wheels are just so ugly, white wheels look good on V8 Supercars.

I have frequently seen club/state level competitpors getting in trouble with scrutineers for doing waht is commonplace in V8 Supercars. ie panel bangng, blocking and weaving, numbers & backgrounds undersized or misplaced or incorrectly aligned and now the wrng colour or coloured headlight covers.
