Its #14 Cameron Hill entry is being backed by FGI, a company that specialises in civil construction, bulk earthworks, mining and agricultural contracting.
Although based in Cairns, the company has strong roots in the Northern Territory.
BJR has unveiled a colourful FGI livery for the car, which is said to include “Indigenous Round elements”, in line with the theme of the Darwin event.
“I am excited to welcome FGI to their first motorsport participation with BJR,” said team owner Brad Jones.
“They’ve got a lot of local customers and contractors in Darwin and it will be a good opportunity to give them a true Supercars experience.
“I really love the look of the car, the colours and the branding combined with the design really suits the GR Supra.”

The Darwin heat and track layout – featuring a 1km long main straight – will provide another litmus test for the Toyota package.
BJR heads to the Top End having taken its first pole and race win of the season last time out at Symmons Plains, courtesy of Andre Heimgartner.
Those results came on the Saturday and spearhead Heimgartner finished the 200km Sunday race almost a lap adrift of the winner.
“The whole team is excited to get on track after Tassie,” added Jones.
“It’s been a long wait to get here but we’ve been able to use that time effectively and do a proper review of the weekend in Tasmania, so hopefully a lot of those learnings we can put into place and get some consistency.”
