POLL: V8 Supercars’ best Bathurst retro liveries

Dick Johnson Racing and Nissan Motorsport will this year continue the popular trend of running retro liveries in the Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000.

DJR, the championship’s oldest team, will mark the 20th anniversary of its most recent Bathurst triumph by campaigning its #17 David Wall/Steven Johnson entry in yellow and blue Shell/FAI colours.

The move marks the third consecutive retro Bathurst livery for DJR, having celebrated Johnson’s famed Tru-Blu XD and Greens’-Tuf XE Falcons in 2012 and 2013.

Nissan is using the second appearance of its V8 Supercars program at Bathurst to hark back to its 1984 Bluebird, which scored pole for The Great Race thanks to the efforts of George Fury.

While the retro schemes come at a compromise for team sponsors, the combination of increased media exposure and revenue earned through associated merchandising ensures that they’ll likely be a fixture of the Bathurst weekend for years to come.
