STEVE ARPIN DEBUTS BOLD NEW ROYAL PURPLE LIVERY IN NEW YORK

July 16, 2014 by Global RallyCross Championship

Steve Arpin's #00 Royal Purple Racing/OMSE2 Ford Fiesta will have a fresh new look in next weekend's Red Bull Global Rallycross event in New York, the fourth race of the series' 2014 season, held at Nassau Coliseum on July 19-20. The striking new design represents a colorful departure from the car's look in the first three races of the year, and will be used for the remainder of the 2014 Red Bull GRC season.

'It's a wild and exciting series, so we wanted to brighten up our Royal Purple paint scheme a little bit and give it some more color,' said Arpin. 'The more and more I've learned about the products Royal Purple offers, the more I've liked the color purple. I pretty much bleed purple now, so we had to get some more color on the race car!'

Arpin will make the 13th start of his Red Bull GRC career in New York, all of which have come in Royal Purple-backed Ford Fiestas. He earned the first podium of his career in the 2014 season opener at Top Gear Festival Barbados, and currently sits tied for third in the series' Supercars championship, only 27 points back of the lead.
