Team 18 have unveiled the CUB CADET Racing Camaro which Mark ‘Frosty’ Winterbottom will race in Tasmania, Sandown and the Gold Coast as part of a collaboration with DEWALT and Stanley Black & Decker.

Winterbottom’s #18 Camaro will feature a striking yellow livery featuring the colours of CUB CADET, with DEWALT swapping positions with CUB CADET on the roof.

CUB CADET joined the team this year after a recent acquisition by Stanley Black & Decker, expanding their global family of brands, including DEWALT, IRWIN and SIDCHROME that have partnered with Team 18 over the past nine years.

DEWALT will remain as the major partner for the Bathurst 1000 and season-ending Adelaide 500.

Winterbottom currently sits 14th in the Supercars Championship with two podiums at Albert Park and Darwin, ahead of the next round in Tasmania next week.

The 2024 CUB CADET Racing livery was created by designer Nick Moss and brought to life by PPG paint and vinyl partner Metamark, alongside Team 18’s sign writer, Mitch Croke.

Fans will get their first look of the CUB CADET Racing Camaro in the flesh at Supercars’ Hobart Fan Event on Wednesday 14 August, ahead of the Tasmania SuperSprint at Symmons Plains Raceway on 16-18 August.

“I’m really looking forward to hitting the track at Symmons Plains with the new CUB CADET Racing livery. Tasmania is always a great place to race, and the fans there are incredible. With two podiums under our belt this season, we’re aiming to push even harder and bring home some strong results.”

“I can’t wait for the fans to see the CUB CADET Camaro up close at the Hobart fan event on Wednesday. It’s always special to interact with the fans, and I’m sure they’ll love the new design as much as we do.

Adrian Davis, Managing Director ANZ – Stanley Black & Decker

“Stanley Black & Decker is thrilled to have another of our iconic brands in CUB CADET as a major sponsor of one of the Supercars.

“We have a strong history of our brands being involved in sponsorship of premier sporting events all over the world, so it makes sense with CUB CADET to have all the family under one roof at Team 18 and leverage the success that DEWALT and many of our other brands have enjoyed with Supercars over the years.”

David Kennedy, Brand Manager – CUB CADET

“CUB CADET is now part of the Stanley Black & Decker family and having CUB CADET as the primary brand on Frosty’s Team 18 Camaro is an extraordinary honour to have.

“For several years, CUB CADET has been actively engaged with Supercars teams. Our dedicated dealers and enthusiastic users share a deep admiration for the power, performance, and control that this premier motorsport championship offers in Australia.

“This year, we are thrilled to have the chance to showcase our brand to a wide audience across Australia and New Zealand during the Tasmania, Sandown, and Gold Coast Supercars rounds, and in the lead up to the start of the mowing and gardening season.”
