Supercars to introduce LED panels in Perth

The Gen3 Ford Mustangs and Chevrolet Camaros will feature new LED panels at the Bosch Power Tools Perth SuperSprint.

The panels were tested in the Gen3 Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro prototypes during demonstration runs at the 2022 Repco Bathurst 1000.

Designed by Motec, the LED panels will initially be used in Perth to display the driver’s track position.

The LED panel will be located on the front windscreen on the passenger’s side of the vehicle, next to the driver’s surname. It will replace the current dayglo sticker numbers. Sticker numbers will remain on the side windows and rear windscreen.

“These panels will allow fans and viewers to easily follow the race and track the progress of their favourite drivers,” said Supercars Motorsport Operations Manager Paul Martin.

“Wanneroo is the perfect venue to showcase this exciting new technology for fans watching the broadcast at home, and importantly, those cheering on their favourite drivers at the circuit.”
