Reed to wear Team Vodafone V8 Supercar livery
Fresh from its historic 1-2 finish at Bathurst on the weekend, dominant V8 Supercar outfit TeamVodafone will add two more wheels to its lineup when it announces Multiple World Supercross and Australian Super X Champion Chad Reed as its newest member tomorrow.
The nation’s leading dirt bike export has won back to back Super X titles in Australia and has both World Supercross and AMA SX Championships under his belt.
Returning home for the Super X opener at Newcastle this week, Reed will unveil a unique livery for his 450cc race machine at Darling Harbour Convention Centre forecourt tomorrow.
The livery borrows from the unique look of TeamVodafone’s Holden Commodore racecars and will stand out on track when Reed races in front of his home Newcastle Super X crowd for the first time. In addition, Reed’s riding gear has been custom-made to reflect the suits donned by drivers.
Reed will race under the TeamVodafone banner for the remainder of the year, and get the opportunity to further his passion for four wheels with tests aboard the team’s Holden Commodore. The last time he was behind the wheel of a TeamVodafone racecar was when the H-pattern gearbox was mandatory, and he is looking forward to the challenge of mastering the sequential shifter.
