Brighty's Back In A Ford

Mega Paint Job!


21 February 2017

Launch season continues for the Supercar contenders with the arrival of Jason Bright's new rig.

The veteran's crossed back over to the Blue Oval after a number of years steering for Brad Jones Racing.

This time round though, Bright will race on a Racing Entitlements Contract - basically a competition licence - he co-owns.

It'll be painted in the white, black, purple and blue colours of major sponsor MEGA Limited, which is petroleum company.

Is he worried about the transition to the Ford set-up? Not really after a quick fang in the FG Falcon late last year.

"The car didn't do anything surprising but it was quite different to what I'm used to. Having said that I was comfortable in the car quite quickly and that will only improve when it is set up to my specifications.

Gary Jacobsen will co-drive with Bright for the Enduro Cup rounds which include Bathurst and Sandown.

A test at Sydney Motorsport Park looms for the drivers later this month ahead of the series-opening Clipsal 500 from March 2-5.
