A few weeks back we talked V8 Supercar launches from the leading Holden Team, Red Bull Racing Australia. Over the past couple of weeks the leading Ford Team, Prodrive Racing Australia has unveiled their two young gun’s cars for 2016 season, both with cool launch videos First was the Chaz Mostert, who is returning to the car after a horror crash at last years Bathurst 1000 race, where he broke his leg and wrist in a huge crash. Mostert’s main sponsor is Supercheap Auto, an Australian Auto parts store chain. For their launch video they took over a quarry in the northern Australian state of QLD and combined with ex V8 Supercar driver Paul “The Dude” Morris and talented stunt rider Matt Mingay Featured in the video, as well as Chaz’s new V8 Supercar, is a Speedway car and Trophy Truck. Check the video out below [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCxGrsVetXU[/youtube] The second young gun and the newest driver to the Prodrive team is Cameron Walters, who only took the covers of his car this week. Waters, who has spent the last five seasons in the Dunlop Development series, the feeder series to V8 Supercars, will feature energy drink manufacturer Monster Energy as his main sponsor for 2016. Waters’s long time sponsor Enzed is again appearing on the car. The launch video for his reveal is below [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Kx_YAGbOdU[/youtube] Current Champion Mark “Frosty” Winterbotton, and the driver of the #1 Prodrive Falcon, launched his livery for 2016 just days after sealing last years championship. There has been a slight tweak to it since then with black wheels replacing the green wheels seen at the original launch. The Season kicks of this weekend in Adelaide, South Australia at the Clipsal 500 race. IMAGES courtsey of Prodrive Racing Australia
