Unitech Racing to Chase the Grand Sport Title with a New Team Name and Fresh Driver Lineup

Unitech Racing’s vehicles and paddock will be sporting a voluptuous new look at the Grand-Am Cup 200 at Daytona this weekend, and not because of any changes to the Z’s curvaceous fenders. Unitech is proud to announce that Playboy Magazine has joined the team as the primary sponsor for 2006, providing a new team name (Playboy Racing), and various types of support for the Bunny-liveried racecars.

With the retirement of Schuitemaker Motorsports’ 350Z’s from competition in the Grand Sport class this year, Nissan Motorsports will rest their hopes for victory on Playboy Racing. With two years of development on the cars, a cohesive crew, and a stellar driver lineup, Playboy Racing should be able to deliver. Drivers Blake Rosser of Henderson Nevada and David Murry of Cumming Georgia will resume piloting duties in 2006, while Tommy Constantine of Scottsdale AZ and Mike Borkowski of Miami FL will strap in for their first taste of competitive action in the Playboy Z’s. These outstanding drivers will strive to repeat the race-winning performances of prior years, beginning with the season opener at Daytona on January 27, 2006.

Unitech will also look for continued support from StopTech Brake Systems, Motec, Sakata Motorsport Electronics, and KONI/Truechoice.

If anybody is going to Daytona, you might want to stop by Playboy Racing's pits. They will have Playmates signing posters there.

 

looking forward to this season!

 

Nice.... Z = panty dropper

 

Where are the playboy bunnies?

 

I'm going to be there Sunday morning, but I don't foresee many Playmates hanging around then!

 

Where in daytona is this race going to be held??

 

Himmm Performance Nissan better take some notes on that sponsor

 

nice nice... panty dropper alright! hehe

Good luck this season!....

 

Thanks for the pics Jeff!

I searched about 500 pics at Motorsport.com, and only found a couple of the #87 Z during practice, which I think WAS a Unitech car.

I have to agree with the others......BUNNY PICS!

But I have a feeling we will be seeing LOTS of bunny pics soon, a racing photographers 1st choice to take at a car race.

Hopping they get lucky!

 

whats spoiler is that on those Zs? Normally i dont like any spoiler on the Z, but that one lies low and actually looks good.

 

It's at Daytona International Speedway. I want to go if I can figure out how to get tickets. The only ones they have for sale on the website are for the 28th & 29th, and this race is on the 27th... I don't want to drive all the way over there and then not be able to watch.

 

Buy the $80 ticket...it's good for going everywhere each day.

 

But, according to the website, the $80 ticket is for Saturday and Sunday, and the race I want to see is on Friday.

 

Show of hands whose going.

 

Yeah their Hauler will most likely be gone after the race on Friday.

 

Hey - if you're still thinking about going, let me know. Phil is off that day so we're going to head up there.

Tickets for the race on Friday are $12 and can only be purchased at the box office the day of the race. The other tickets are only for the Saturday and Sunday events. At least, that's what they told me when I called.
