The Albury-based squad will run the familiar red and white colours of Fujitsu General on the #8 Holden Commodore for the final round of the 2019 Pirtek Enduro Cup.

“Fujitsu General is excited to be reviving it’s car racing sponsorship history for this one-off retro round,” said Dave Smith – General Manager Sales and Marketing, Fujitsu General.

“We wish Nick Percat and Tim Blanchard all the best for this performance.”

Brad Jones Racing’s Nick Percat is looking forward to rounding out the endurance races with the 500km challenge.

“The BJR team have been working overtime in the lead up to Sandown as all three cars are rolling out something special for this event,” said Percat.

“It’s great to have the support of Fujitsu General on board for the event, even with the mix of retro cars on track, this will certainly stand out amongst them.”

“Coming into the final round of the Enduro Cup, Tim and I are looking to finish on a high. I really enjoy racing at Sandown even though it hasn’t always been kind to me. We’ve always had great pace there so I’m looking to show this and get the Fujitsu Racing Supercar hopefully up on that podium.”

Team Owner Brad Jones thinks the livery design will stand out amongst the crowd.

“The car looks fantastic with Fujitsu’s iconic colours, which I am sure will be well recognised by the fans.”

“We’re really excited to partner up with Fujitsu on car eight for the last of the enduro rounds at Sandown.”

The Fujitsu Racing Supercar takes to the track this Friday for practice ahead of the Sandown 500.
