Wow that is the Ex Romano Racing Rig. I Remember coming back from Perth in 98 with my mate who was driving Longhurst's transporter at the time . I have a pic of it somewhere taken on the way back in the middle of nowhere.

Ironic the BMW factory team using a prime mover from arch rival Mercedes-Benz. Obviously wasn't a contra deal like happens today with the truck manufacturer's brand appearing on the car.

Ooooh, JPS 635.
There are some significant 'roo bars on the front of that truck. Either the wildlife was a bit sturdier back then or BMW weren't too convinced of the strength of the front of the Merc! |

Travel through the Australian desert at night as this would have done on its way to Adelaide & Perth, witness see the amount of roadkill littering the road and you will understand why bullbars are a necessity.

Has anyone ever sat down and counted the number of times that a V8SC team has poached a sponsor from a competitor, rather than get off their arse and go and get someone new from outside the sport?
I'm sure it's a big number. |

What generally happens is a lower team brings a sponsor into the sport and then it ends up at the front end of the field after a season or two. From there, they get pinched by another team who promise much more for their $$$. In the end the sponsor eventually has enough and exits the sport stage left. |

Those Masterton cars always looked stunning. Great, classy liveries.
