\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAndre Heimgartner’s #8 R&J Batteries Toyota Supra.<\/p>\n
The reveal comes ahead of its first laps on Wednesday at Winton Motor Raceway as part of a shakedown.<\/p>\n
Heimgartner enters his sixth season with Brad Jones Racing, all of which have been with the backing of Australian business R&J Batteries.<\/p>\n
The team has also welcomed a slew of new sponsors in Trico, Beta Tools, Wilson Spott.<\/p>\n
\u201cAll I can say is \u2018wow\u2019. Look at this car, with the R&J Batteries colours on it, it looks amazing,\u201d said Heimgartner<\/p>\n
\u201cI have to thank the team for all the effort that has gone into building the Supra. It\u2019s been a challenge, but they\u2019ve achieved something pretty great.<\/p>\n
\u201cI can\u2019t wait to get on track today and shakedown the car. I\u2019ve had a couple of laps in the Supra before, but this one\u2019s mine, so it\u2019s a bit different.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a lot of work to do, but this is the team to do it.\u201d<\/p>\n Andre Heimgartner\u2019s #8 R&J Batteries Toyota Supra.<\/p>\n Heimgartner\u2019s car is the first of three to be unveiled, with the Toyota Supras of Cameron Hill and Macauley Jones to follow.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve always liked the look of the R&J Batteries liveries, and I\u2019m proud that we\u2019ve had so many over the course of our partnership but there\u2019s something pretty special about this one,\u201d said team owner Brad Jones.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Supra is a beautiful-looking Supercar and the R&J colours look spectacular on it.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019d be lying if I said I wasn\u2019t a little nervous heading into today and seeing our first Supra head out on track, but I have full faith in our team and in this program, and I know we can achieve success with this package.\u201d<\/p>\n PHOTOS: Andre Heimgartner\u2019s Toyota Supra scheme<\/a><\/p>\n Ray Robson, R&J Batteries managing director, added: \u201cThe car looks incredible.
