Autosport International
NEC, Birmingham, England
13th January 2007

Where better to launch the new sponsor of your Top Fuel dragster than at the worlds premier motorsport exhibition. Andy Carter and the Carter Motorsport team unveiled their primary sponsor for 2007/2008 at 12 noon on Saturday 13th January 2007 in front of a large crowd of drag racing fans, first time visitors, sponsors and media.

Well before the show opens the dragster is wrapped up to keep its identity secret until the grand unveiling.

At spot on 12noon the car is unveiled. Carter Motorsport have secured sponsorship from Lucas Oils! Here Les Downey, Lucas managing director of the UK, helps reveal the stunning new paint scheme.

Master of ceremony John Price presents Andy Carter to the assembled crowd.

Andy gives his first TV interview as a Lucas Oils driver.

Andy Carter and Les Downey 'seal the deal' with a handshake across the new car.

Clutch Technician Neil Collins was on hand to give out the new Andy Carter hero cards.

Probably the strangest location for an interview. Andy Carter chats to Motorsport News from a motorised bed.

Cylinder Head Technician Dan Ford talks about the car to these drag racing newcomers.

Once the show had finished we were able to stand back and view the whole car.

It certainly looks very nice and we can't wait to see it on the track.
