CTE Racing - HVM's appearance is all new in 2006 and the team debuted their new style along with their talented new driver line-up in front of more than 180,000 roaring fans at the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach source: paddocktalk.com Having announced their partnership with actor/comedian Cedric "The Entertainer" prior to the final round of the 2005 Champ Car World Series in Mexico City last November, the team promised a new look for 2006 and appeared at Long Beach last weekend in their new charcoal grey, red, orange and yellow livery. A panel of judges from Sherwin-Williams Automotive Finishes, the new official Automotive Finishes Sponsor of the Champ Car World Series, reviewed each team at Long Beach to determine the best color, design, gloss and overall appearance. CTE-HVM's bright new design caught the attention of the judges, who awarded the inaugural "It's All in the Finish" award to the team. Team Principal, Keith Wiggins, was delighted with the award and commented, "Everyone in the team has put a lot of effort into our new focus and identity since the announcement of our far-reaching association with Cedric. It is important for us to be seen as a re-launched entity with new branding and style. This award shows that the work has been well worthwhile and we are all looking forward to the other elements coming together with equal impact."
