A sunny day. A Kenworth K200 big cab. A B-Double race transporter. What more could we possibly want?

Thanks to its driver, Vin Borgia, this is our first look at Walkinshaw Andretti United’s race transporter for the 2021 Repco Supercars Championship season.

The team has opted for a striking asymmetrical wrap again, with a pink and black colour scheme for Bryce Fullwood’s Middy’s Electrical entry on the left side of the transporter, while the right side of the transporter mirrors the blue and black livery of Chaz Mostert’s Appliances Online-backed Holden Commodore.

While it looks markedly different on the outside, the trailer set remains the same for 2021, with only minor maintenance undertaken on both trailers over the off-season according to Borgia.

It is, however, a brand-new Kenworth K200 big cab prime mover pulling the race gear for 2021. The team’s sponsorship with Palm Trans continues this year, which saw the new prime mover delivered to Walkinshaw Andretti United with only 162 kilometres on the clock.

And the coolest thing about this year’s setup? The transporter will rock the number plate ‘PALM 05’, in a nod to the late Peter Brock’s famous racing number.

To match the trailers, the Kenworth prime mover also has a splash of colour on both sides, extending the asymmetrical wrap.
