The Albury-based squad will have its #8 Andre Heimgartner and #14 Cam Hill Supras on track exactly a week out from the pre-season test in Sydney.<\/p>\n
Heimgartner\u2019s car has been competed in its R&J Batteries colours that are set to be unveiled at the test, while Hill\u2019s will turn its first laps in plain black.<\/p>\n
It will mark Hill\u2019s first drive of a Supra, while Heimgartner sampled Walkinshaw TWG Racing\u2019s test mule<\/a> at Winton earlier this year.<\/p>\n \u201cRunning the cars is going to be a very proud moment,\u201d team owner Jones told Speedcafe.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s one of those moments in time when you have a couple of new cars with a new manufacturer, it\u2019s the start of a very exciting relationship.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m looking forward to being there for it.\u201d<\/p>\n The cars are set to take to the track for the first time during the afternoon.<\/p>\n BJR\u2019s double shakedown will follow the long-awaited arrival of two Toyota V8 engines at BJR last week.<\/p>\n The team\u2019s truck driver couriered the engines down from Supercars\u2019 engine shop in Brisbane \u2013 one arriving on Wednesday and the second Friday.<\/p>\n BJR\u2019s third car for Macauley Jones is a converted Chevrolet Camaro and therefore does not receive a shakedown under Supercars rules.<\/p>\n Walkinshaw had its first Supra on track early last September, completing 5000km of engine test mileage across a range of circuits.<\/p>\n That car is set to be raced by Ryan Wood, while Chaz Mostert\u2019s new machine was shaken down as part of parity testing<\/a> at Queensland Raceway on Monday.<\/p>\n
