V8Xtra to go behind the scenes at FPR this Saturday
Channel Seven’s V8Xtra program will go behind the scenes at the Ford Performance workshop during this weekend’s show to be broadcast at Midday this Saturday.

The show, filmed in front of a live audience, will not only feature a behind the scenes look at the workshop but also incorporate a number of challenges between the Orrcon Steel-backed drivers of Mark Winterbottom and Steve Richards.

New livery for Orrcon Steel Falcon at Super School
Orrcon Steel has launched a new look livery for one of its Falcons at the V8 Super School on the Gold Coast.

The new livery is dedicated to one of the most memorable liveries in the history of Orrcon Steel’s involvement in the V8 Supercar Championship – the ‘Cobra’ car.

This original livery was unveiled at Bathurst in 2007 before Mark Winterbottom secured Orrcon’s first event win two rounds later in Bahrain in the special livery.
