New look for Pye at Bathurst and Gold Coast

Team 18 has revealed a new naming-rights sponsor for the #20 entry of Scott Pye at Bathurst and the Gold Coast.

The entry will feature backing from Alspec on a new green livery. Alspec is an Australian-owned company who design and produce a comprehensive range of aluminium systems and products for commercial, residential, and industrial applications.

Pye will team with youngster Tyler Everingham at the Repco Bathurst 1000.

“To have Alspec onboard as naming-rights partner is exciting, they’re a great supporter of Team 18 and they’ve been on the car all year,” said Pye.

“We’re looking forward to Australia’s premiere supercar race and it’s great to have an innovative partner in Alspec who are an Australia owned company and source their products locally.

“Excited for Bathurst, it’s a track everyone looks forward to going to and to see everyones face when we revealed the car made it all the more special, so I’m looking forward to getting up to the mountain next week.

“Our preparation for the great race has been really good, for us as a group it’s been a huge focus of ours for a long time. This season has had its challenges so we like to focus on Bathurst and try and turn our season around with a fantastic result there.

“For me personally, having finished second there a couple of times, I don’t really want to do that again. I’d love to stand on the top step, and to do it with Tyler [Everingham] and Alspec would be a really great feeling come Sunday afternoon.

“The car looks fantastic, I saw the renders a little bit earlier and to see it come to life is really cool. The car looks great, the green works well, one of my most successful go karts was bright green so I’m excited to have that back on board and I just can’t wait to get it on track at the mountain.”
