Fujitsu GRM’s Scott McLaughlin/Jack Perkins Holden will sport a revised livery at Bathurst as part of team owner Garry Rogers’ ongoing 50th year in motorsport celebrations.
The #33 Commodore will don gold highlights and ‘GRM 50 years’ lettering for the event.
Fifty-year graphics have been prominent on the roofs of the two GRM cars as well as the team’s transporter and garage set-up throughout the season.
Rogers entered motorsport as a driver in 1963, racing Holdens in Appendix J competition.
Campaigning a variety of touring cars and sports sedans over the following decades, the Melbourne-based car dealer stepped back from driving in the early 1990s.
Since joining V8 Supercars in 1996, GRM has recorded a single Bathurst win in 2000 and a best championship result of second with Garth Tander in the same year.
The tight-knit outfit has kick-started the careers of many of today’s top drivers, including the likes of Steve Richards, Jason Bright, Garth Tander, Jamie Whincup, Lee Holdsworth and Scott McLaughlin.
The team announced in June that it will morph into the factory Volvo Polestar V8 Supercars effort in 2014.
The #34 Alexandre Premat/Greg Ritter entry will retain its season-long scheme for Bathurst.
