TSR has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Pink FORD

What is with the poofy pink FORD sign on the windscreens of the Falcons.

The only reason I can think of -- it is for Breast Cancer Day

Can anyone help on this.

I havent seen the stickers, and I guess it may look poofy, but no-one would disagree its for a very good cause.

It is a good cause... although pink background with blue Ford writing looks a little ordinary.... and doesnt suit the paint schemes of any of the cars.

Maybe Ford should allow the teams to run different variations of this colour scheme on the windscreen... remember in the Winfield/Gibson days, Mr Richards & Mr Skaife had white on red and red on white "Holdenwise" branding on their windscreens... for the trainspotters, it was the only way you could tell the cars apart at speed...

I think its great that they are showing support for the cause, On a race weekend, with many many fans, there is always at least half the crowd that it is either happened to, or its happened to someone they know and love, so to get behind it like this is fantastic!!

The Formula 3s have pink rear wings foils as well.

Considering the amount of breasts on display at Indy - surely it's the most appropriate round to support the cause.

Who cares what it looks like or combination it is! You have to live with it! If it helps in the awareness Its well worth it! It surely has done that, everyone has noticed it and asks what tha?
Great work to the advertising guru's
