“Like everyone else, I’ve seen some of the great work tradies do everyday, in fact most of my closest mates are tradesmen.” said Holdsworth.
“Plus in the motor racing industry we like to surround ourselves with skilled tradespeople to ensure the best results.”
“Carrying the special livery over the next two events marks what will be a great day and something I encourage people to be part of .”
To initiate this annual celebration for tradesmen, IRWIN introduced a logo to give ‘National Tradesmen Day’ a distinct graphical icon.
The IRWIN Tools National Tradesmen Day livery will be seen on the IRWIN Racing at Sydney Motorsport Park (formally Eastern Creek) on August 25-26 and the Dick Smith Sandown 500 on September 14-16.
