BLANCHARD Racing Team Supercars recruit James Golding<\/a> will don CoolDrive blue in 2026 as the auto parts brand switches across to the other side of the garage.<\/p>\n

CoolDrive has long been associated with BRT\u2019s #3 entry, but with Liqui Moly and Blahst signing on as multi-year co-naming rights partners on that car<\/a>, an opportunity for change presented itself.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is probably the biggest shift we\u2019ve made with a CoolDrive livery in our time in Supercars,\u201d said team owner and CoolDrive chief operating officer Tim Blanchard.<\/p>\n

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

\u201cThere was a clear focus on creating stronger alignment across both sides of the garage.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile we represent different partners, everything operates under the BRT umbrella and this year\u2019s designs really showcase that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Golding arrives at BRT having spent the past three-and-a-half years at PremiAir Racing.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe car looks unreal. The CoolDrive blue is iconic, and it\u2019s a nice change for me personally to roll out in something that stands out like this,\u201d said the 30-year-old.<\/p>\n

\u201cHeading into this season, I feel like I\u2019m in a really strong place.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe relationship I\u2019ve built with the crew already makes it feel like home. I can\u2019t wait to roll out in Sydney.\u201d<\/p>\n

BRT enters the season with a newfound Triple Eight technical alliance in place.<\/p>\n

On top of its main game effort, the squad will also field two cars in the Dunlop Super2 Series for Lochie Dalton<\/a> and Bailey Sweeny<\/a>.<\/p>\n
