PremiAir Racing moves into purpose-built facility

PremiAir Racing has moved into a new purpose-built workshop on the Gold Coast.

The team made its debut in 2022, having been born out of Team Sydney.

The PremiAir Hire Depot at Darra has been home to the PremiAir Supercars squad while the new facility was being built.

The Darra venue also permanently hosts the championship-winning PremiAir Hire Top Fuel Dragster.

The state-of-the-art facility, which is based in Arundel, will house both PremiAir Commodores and all team staff,

The likes of Havendeen, Gearwrench and Polyfloor Australia skippered the build of the facility.

PremiAir Racing Team Principal Matt Cook says the new facility is a big step forward for the fledgling team.

"It has been a huge first half of the year for everyone at PremiAir Racing and we are all so thankful to PremiAir Hire Queensland State Manager Theo Woollett and his team at PremiAir Hire Darra for making us feel so welcome while we waited for our new home on the Gold Coast to come online," Cook said.

"While we have greatly enjoyed being a part of the PremiAir Hire Darra family these past months, this move into our purpose-built facility marks a great step forward as we continue to work around the clock on our efforts to move further up the field in our debut season.

"We are not doing anything by halves, and this new workshop is a testament to our commitment to ensuring we have the best tools at the disposal of the best people we can to make sure we are putting our best foot forward now and into the future."

The team has already undergone change in 2022, most notably with James Golding replacing Garry Jacobson.

The team recently welcomed decorated engineer Geoffrey Slater from Walkinshaw Andretti United.

Team owner Peter Xiberras reiterated that a new workshop is key to the team’s progress.

"Things obviously came together very quickly for us at the beginning of the year, and I am very proud of how the PremiAir Hire Darra depot welcomed our new Supercars team with open arms," Xiberras said.

"With our new workshop now up and running, we have taken another big step forward as we pursue the best possible set-up for success."
