year, in a somewhat unusual crossover, Daniel Ricciardo paid tribute to two home-grown Australian touring car racing legends \u2013 Dick Johnson and Allan Moffat.<\/p>\n<p>Ahead of the Australian Grand Prix, Enchant\u00e9 dropped its Backyard Grand Prix collection.<\/p>\n<p>The swag featured a variety of Australian iconography, but two pieces stand out from the rest.<\/p>\n<p>The \u2018Bearbrass Nationals\u2019 hoodie features a print of Dick Johnson\u2019s #17 Bryan Byrt Ford-backed XC Falcon from 1979.<\/p>\n<p>The \u2018Backyard Grand Prix\u2019 tee, meanwhile, features a print of Allan Moffat\u2019s #25 Federation-sponsored XC Falcon from the late 1970s.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/speedcafe.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/3.8.260149.jpg\"

the 1977 Bathurst 1000 in a one-two finish alongside Colin Bond and Alan Hamilton, cementing the XC Falcon in Australian motorsport folklore.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis collection is about remembering why you fell in love with it all in the first place,\u201d said Ricciardo, who is a Ford Racing ambassador.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBefore the lights, before the pressure, it was just mates, a garage, big dreams and having a go.\u00a0Backyard Grand Prix is that feeling bottled up.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe designs are playful, optimistic, and doesn\u2019t take themselves too seriously, which is exactly how I want
