BRODIE Kostecki and Todd Hazelwood<\/a>\u2019s victory in the AirTouch 500 at The Bend marked Dick Johnson<\/a> Racing\u2019s 150th Australian Touring Car\/Supercars Championship race win.<\/p>\n

And that has prompted not one, but two model releases to stem from the victory by the Shell V-Power Racing team by their model partners, Authentic Collectables.<\/p>\n

Announced in the immediate aftermath of the milestone win are 1:18 scale versions of both the winning #38 Mustang, but also a special edition 150 race win livery Gen3 Mustang model.<\/p>\n

Both are available for pre order here right now in the V8 Sleuth Superstore.<\/a><\/p>\n

The race-winning car also comes with a cool addition too.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

For the first time, this model will also include a scale replica of the #1 winner pit-board from Pirtek victory lane!<\/p>\n

The 150 wins car celebrates the team\u2019s impressive victory milestone. Its run of wins began with team co-owner Dick Johnson and his famous Tru-Blu Falcon XD at Symmons Plains in 1981.<\/p>\n

DJR becomes just the third team in championship history to win 150 races, joining Triple Eight Race Engineering and Walkinshaw Andretti United (formerly Holden Racing Team)<\/p>\n

Designed by Tristan Groves, the model features flashes of blue and gold symbolising the team\u2019s longevity and unwavering commitment to pushing the limits in motorsport with Ford.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The design incorporates DJR and Ford branding, along with special \u2018150\u2019 race numbers and markings on the doors and bonnet to commemorate the milestone.<\/p>\n

Additional details honour both Johnson and Kostecki\/Hazelwood as the first and 150th race-winning drivers, with their respective race numbers on the lower rear windscreen and highlights across the boot lid.<\/p>\n

Each model will be released in strictly limited numbers and comes with an individually numbered certificate of authenticity, personally signed by Dick Johnson, Brodie Kostecki<\/a>, and Todd Hazelwood.<\/p>\n

A matching-number mini print is also included as an optional display piece.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"BRODIE Kostecki and Todd Hazelwood\u2019s victory in the AirTouch 500 at The Bend marked Dick Johnson Racing\u2019s 150th…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":153226,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[572],"tags":[64,63,806,805,803,804,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-153225","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-motosport","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-motor","11":"tag-motor-sports","12":"tag-motosport","13":"tag-motosports","14":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/153225","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=153225"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/153225\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/153226"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=153225"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=153225"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=153225"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
