It was the special Audi livery for the Adelaide ALMS in 2000. Displayed at Autosport show in Jan 2001.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WECff7_IaE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WECff7_IaE)

The wierd bit was that Australian driver Brad Jones was Mcnishs stand in driver because Nish injured his back while putting on his kilt (the mind boggles).Jones quailified but never had to race but still was on the podium.

I have a 1/24th scale kit of this car to build, sure the decals will be a fun job ! Brad Jones name was on the car though but sadly they didn't put them in the kit but I have had some printed which will be going on my model if I ever get around to building it. ;D

Also known as "The Race of A Thousand Years", and I'd completely forgotten about it until seeing that pic. :senile:
