In an ideal world, any motor racing team would not have actual body panels available to offer their fans. In the world's most competitive Touring Car Championship, damaged panels have become par for the course.

To be able to give motor racing fans the chance to purchase their own authentic signed piece of motor racing history, Ford Performance Racing (FPR) has launched an On Line Panel Shop, accessible from the team's website, www.fpr.com.au

These rare FPR Falcon panel components will be personally autographed by either CAT FPR Falcon driver Jason Bright or Ford Credit FPV Falcon driver Greg Ritter, ensuring that they become lasting mementos for any diehard Ford V8 Supercar fan.

The new FPR On Line Panel Shop offers V8 Supercar fans the chance to bid for genuine FPR Falcon panels, signed by the driver of their choice, as damaged or replaced following V8 Supercar rounds during the 2005 season.

Of major importance is the fact that in line with FPR's policy of annual livery re-designs, the FPR Falcon panels gained by motor racing enthusiasts this season will never be seen again, taking their place in the history of the country's fastest growing sport.

As a unique gift or simply to deck out the garage or automotive workshop, the FPR On Line Panel Shop is a must for true blue, blue oval fans.

The FPR On Line Panel Shop also becomes the only way to access FPR Falcon panels, ensuring that all components offered to V8 Supercar fans are totally authentic.

According to FPR Commercial Director Rod Barrett, "This new initiative from FPR provides fans with a unique opportunity to bid for their very their own signed piece of collectable FPR history. We don't encourage our drivers to provide such wears, however there is no reason to throw these panels away when they can adorn a fan's home or workplace".

FPR fans can inspect the range of FPR Falcon panels on offer by visiting www.fpr.com.au and making a bid for these highly sought after items
