The update comes as part of DJR\u2019s partnership with Personalised Plates Queensland<\/a> with new number plates celebrating Brodie Kostecki and Will Davison\u2019s Great Race achievements to be fitted to the Shell Fords.<\/p>\n

The #38 car will switch from KO5T3KI to CH4MP in reference to Kostecki and Todd Hazelwood being the reigning Bathurst 1000 champions<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The iconic #17 will go from D4VI5ON to 2XWINNER, a nod to Davison\u2019s Great Race triumphs in 2009 and 2016.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis plate swap captures the essence of our partnership with PPQ, which is connecting with our Queensland fans in a bold and distinctly Queensland way,\u201d said DJR CEO David Noble.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll four of our drivers have delivered incredible moments on this track, and seeing the wins reflected on their cars at Bathurst is truly inspiring.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can\u2019t wait to get to the Mountain and continue our winning form after a great weekend at The Bend 500 at Shell V-Power Motorsport Park.\u201d<\/p>\n

PPQ general manager Joshua Lee added: \u201cThe Repco Bathurst 1000 is arguably the biggest race in the Supercars calendar. Not any driver wins the Repco Bathurst 1000, and here we have two drivers in the Shell V-Power Racing Team holding precisely that accolade.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs partners of the Shell V-Power Racing Team, we felt it was important for Personalised Plates Queensland to acknowledge and celebrate these achievements in the best way we know \u2013 with personalised plates.\u201d<\/p>\n

The new-look Mustangs will hit the track for the first time on Thursday October 9.<\/p>\n
