\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThomas Randle’s silver fern scheme.<\/p>\n

For the ITM Taupo Super440 and ITM Christchurch Super440, Randle will race in a silver and black scheme.<\/p>\n

The colours are synonymous with New Zealand \u2013 namely the silver fern, which flanks the sides of the #55 Castrol Racing Ford Mustang.<\/p>\n

The reveal comes ahead of Randle\u2019s 150th start, which will happen at the second leg of the New Zealand double-header.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo be running such a distinctive livery for the two rounds is special and I hope race fans
across New Zealand love it just as much as I do,\u201d said Randle.<\/p>\n

\u201cCastrol have such strong ties to New Zealand so to have the #55 Mustang donning the Silver Fern is a nice way to symbolise that relationship.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe supporters across New Zealand have always been so welcoming and provide a great atmosphere so we are excited to be here and put a good show on.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe come into the double header in a strong position as we lead the team\u2019s championship and gain back pit lane priority.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn the back of a podium on Sunday at the grand prix, I will be aiming to secure some strong results over the two weekends and get myself back in the top 10 of the championship.\u201d<\/p>\n

Randle sits on the cusp of the drivers\u2019 championship top 10 in 11th while Tickford Racing teammate Cameron Waters rides high in second.<\/p>\n

Randle heads to New Zealand off the back of winning the Bathurst 6 Hour with the Kavich brothers Michael and Ben.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe entire Castrol New Zealand team, and our customers, are thrilled to have double the Supercars action to look forward to, and the Castrol Racing Mustang has never looked better,\u201d said Dan Hibberd, Castrol New Zealand market manager.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe addition of black and silver ferns to the Castrol Racing Mustang gives it an iconically Kiwi look for Taupo and Christchurch and it\u2019ll definitely be a head-turner for the fans.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s exciting to have Tickford coming into Taupo leading the teams\u2019 championship and we\u2019re confident that Tom and Cam can keep that momentum going.<\/p>\n
