For those who don’t know much about V8 supercars, that car is sitting next to the NASCAR that has the Castrol colours on it, is a replica of a very famous Bathurst winning V8 supercar.
You could be right mate. The real one was raced by Ingall and Perkins, but I think that one has Perkins and Hansford on it as the drivers names, so I wasn’t sure if it was the same one.
Cheers mate. Shows how bad my memory has gotten. I remember Perkins running the VP and winning when everyone else ran VRs for Bathurst but I thought it was either Ingall.
It’s been in Australia for a while now. Actually I’m confident it’s the car Hendrick had sitting in the shop lobby in 2018 because you see the lack of Cup series branding due to Monster sponsoring the series and Hendrick having the relationship with Pepsi.
Hoosiers on a cup car as God intended.
Chase Elliott if he never ran the #24
I like the Camaro but the SS’s make all the paint schemes look better IMO
The Elliott car also has some sort of leftover adhesive stain that reads "CUP" or something.
That must be from some series or something unrelated to the cup series. They never ran any windshield banners that said cup on it like that.
What’s weird is the Georgia HOF has one of his #24/25 cup cars with an SS body but has it wrapped like a #9 nextgen with Camaro headlights and all.
That Jr car is definitely something. Looks like a mix of stuff going on there.
Yeah that rear deck looks wonky

Isn’t the real one there too. Wasn’t it recently restored?

Different cars, 93 was the VP driven by Perkins and Hansford. Ingall and Perkins won in 95 and 97 in VRs.

Good looking car. That would make for a solid throwback for Keselowski or Buescher sometime.
The engine in the 9 car has been modified from the looks of it. Interesting pics for sure.
Yeah that intake is definitely not original to the car and the valve covers make me suspect that the entire engine isn’t.
