Rising Star driver Matthew Brabham drove his famous grandfather's Cooper T51 at the recent SuperGP to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Sir Jack's (right) first world title.


Boylan Traffic Solutions has signed a five-year sponsorship deal with the Australian Motor Sport Foundation's Rising Star Program.
Among the  young Rising Star drivers in this year's program is Matthew Brabham, grandson of three-time Formula One world champion, Sir Jack Brabham.
The 15-year-old youngster is the third generation of his family to be active in motor racing. His father Geoff is a former Le Mans winner.
The Rising Star sponsorship deal will see the Boylan Traffic Solutions logo receive extensive television and print exposure over the next five years.

The program aims to help talented drivers reach the pinnacle of motor sport - the FIA Formula 1 World Championship or the World Rally Championship.

Boylan Traffic Solutions' Sydney-based operation has moved - expanding from its old site at Box Hill into a more spacious complex at 46 Huntingwood Dr, Huntingwood.
BTS managing director Peter Boylan said the Huntingwood site's expansive floorplan and convenient location made it an ideal choice for the growing operation.
``And, being only 3km from Blacktown, 2km from the M4 and Great Western Highway, and 2km from the start of the M7/M2 link will, I'm sure, be appreciated by our customers,'' Mr Boylan said.
Our Sydney phone number (9428 8000) remains the same.

       Colour your world for added impact


VMS boards with striking multi-coloured displays are now available for hire and sale through Boylan Traffic Solutions.
The world-first technology was developed in response to studies that showed that motorists are more responsive to an electronic display that uses colour.
The solar-powered coloured displays are still capable of generating industry-standard amber messages and graphics.

Karting star Daniel Holihan (pictured above) has joined such names as James Moffatt and Matthew Brabham in the Boylan motorsport camp.
Boylan Traffic Solutions managing director Peter Boylan has announced a sponsorship deal for Holihan, the 2007 winner of the NSKC Clubman Light Championship.
``We are glad to have Dan join our team - he is very enthusiastic about his motorsport career and we are hoping he brings us back a karting championship in 2010,'' Mr Boylan said.
``And having his stepfather (4x Porsche Cup Champion Geoff Morgan) helping his career along, he has shown great potential.'' 
The Clubman Light front runner regularly runs in the top five at most tracks. This year, he will compete in Clubman Light, Senior National Light and Clubman and is aiming for a debut in a Boylan Traffic Solutions backed Kosmic in KF1-CIK at Eastern Creek in a one-off appearance at the CIK Stars of Karting Series.

          Australia's recent holiday road toll was the highest in four years

Police are shocked by the 70 road deaths over the recent Christmas and New Year period - the highest national holiday road toll in four years.
Channel Nine's news website reported that NSW led the states with 23 deaths between December 18 and January 3. Victoria followed with 17 deaths.
The national figure was the highest in four years and compared to 56 in 2008-09, 46 in 2007-08 and 62 in 2006-07.
NSW police blamed risk-taking drivers for the high toll, with the state's top traffic officer, Assistant Commissioner John Hartley, describing it as shocking.
In Victoria, police were disappointed by the high holiday toll after conducting a major campaign to reduce the number of road deaths.
Deputy Commissioner Ken Lay has written to the state coroner asking her to investigate the state's holiday road toll.
Ironically, the shocking statistics didn't stop Victoria recording its lowest annual road toll  - 295 in 2009 -  since records began in 1952.
Queensland recorded 12 deaths during the holiday period, while 10 people died on Western Australian roads.
Police across the country admit they don't know why the toll is high but say they remain committed to lowering it through efforts such as public education and a visible police presence.
