PREMIAIR RACING READYING FOR BICOASTAL CRUSADE

Posted by: Richard Smith In: News, racing 02 Apr 2022 Comments: 0 Tags: ANDRA, Chris Pither, Garry Jacobson, Peter Xiberras, Supercars, Top Fuel, Top Fuel Dragster

PremiAir Racing will be hunting success on both the East and the West Coasts this weekend, with the team’s Supercars outfit heading to the Beaurepaires Melbourne 400 while the Top Fuel dragster competes in the third round of the Burson Auto Parts Australian Top Fuel Championship in Perth. 

Any crew members who stay behind will also be keeping busy, continuing work on the team’s new Gold Coast headquarters in the hope the PremiAir Racing Supercars program can relocate to the Arundel workshop following the Melbourne 400. 

In Perth, PremiAir Racing principal and Top Fuel driver Peter Xiberras will be hoping to score victory and a prestigious Gold ANDRA Christmas Tree Trophy and bank valuable points as he seeks to defend his Australian Top Fuel Championship.

In Melbourne, PremiAir Racing Supercar drivers Garry Jacobson and Chris Pither and their respective crews will be focusing on continuing to build their racing package in what will be only their third event racing together. 

“This weekend is the first of at least three instances this year that PremiAir Racing will be competing in both Supercars and Top Fuel on the same weekend,” Xiberras said. 

“Thankfully, our team is more than up to the challenge. We have a great bunch of people across both our Drag Racing and Supercars programs, and everyone is dedicated to doing the absolute best we can to make the most of the opportunities ahead of us. 

“After just two rounds of Supercars competition as PremiAir Racing, Garry, Chris and their respective crews are really starting to gel already and I expect to see that continuing in Melbourne, further aided by the more relaxed schedule dictated by qualifying and the races being stretched across the four-day format. 

“I expect that as they continue to work together, we will see their rapport growing and our racing packages improving, leading to more consistency and solid results. 

“In Perth, we are third in the Top Fuel championship with four rounds left to run, so we will be doing all we can to bring home the maximum number of points we can and in the process, hopefully secure a Gold ANDRA Christmas Tree event-winning trophy.

“With the impacts of COVID-19 we haven’t been able to race in Perth since March 2020. At that event, we match raced with Phil Lamattina in front of a big crowd and it was such a fun time, so we are definitely very excited that this time we will be heading over to race for championship points.”

PREMIAIR HIRE RACING LOOKING TO CONQUER UNCHARTERED WATERS

Posted by: Richard Smith In: Media, News, racing 07 Mar 2022 Comments: 0 Tags: ANDRA, Top Fuel, Top Fuel Dragster

PremiAir Hire Racing and the rest of the Burson Auto Parts Australian Top Fuel Championship field will venture into unchartered waters this weekend for the first-ever ATFC event at Mildura’s Sunset Strip.

The Burson Auto Parts ATFC will be competing in Mildura as part of the Sunraysia Drag Racing Association’s Ken Scroop Memorial event across March 12 and 13. 

Not only will it be the first visit for the ATFC to Mildura, but it will also be the first time in 30 years that Top Fuel has raced for championship points at a venue outside of an Australian capital city, and the first time since 2014 the category will race over the eighth-mile distance. 

It will also be the very first-time PremiAir Hire Racing driver and team principal, Peter Xiberras, has raced on the eighth mile in a Top Fuel dragster. 

“We are really looking forward to this new challenge at Mildura’s Sunset Strip,” PremiAir Hire Racing Crew Chief, Tim Adams, said. 

“Just because it is half the normal race distance, doesn’t mean the crew will have half the maintenance between rounds – but it does mean the car can be run harder.

“Phil Lamattina holds the Top Fuel track record at the Sunset Strip, with a 3.29-second pass at 263 miles per hour, which he set in 2014.

“We are currently 25 points behind Phil Read in the ATFC standings, so of course challenging for an event victory and as many championship points as possible is a high priority, but in the process, we would really like to reset that record so we will be doing all we can to achieve that

“It sure has been a busy time for PremiAir Hire Racing of late with the team’s debut into Supercars and the first event in Sydney at the weekend. Hopefully, we can keep the good times rolling with some positive results and maybe even a win at Mildura this weekend!” 

The action at the Ken Scroop Memorial will get underway from 3.00pm on Saturday the 12th of March and 2.00pm on Sunday the 13th of March. Two rounds of qualifying will be held for Top Fuel on Saturday at 7.00pm and 9.00pm before Sunday hosts Top Fuel racing at 4.00pm, 6.30pm and 9.00pm ahead of a spectacular fireworks show (all times local and approximate).

PREMIAIR RACING CLINCHES TOP FUEL CHAMPIONSHIP & WINTERNATS WIN

Posted by: Richard Smith In: racing 14 Jun 2021 Comments: 0

PremiAir Racing has dominated the 2021 Gulf Western Oil Winternationals at Willowbank Raceway, claiming the 400 Thunder Top Fuel Championship and the event’s Top Fuel trophy while rewriting the national 400 Thunder Top Fuel ET record and the track record.

The impressive performance delivers a maiden national title and Winternationals win for the team, and heartily expands an accomplishment-list that already included track records at Sydney Dragway, the Perth Motorplex and event wins at Sydney, Perth and Willowbank.

The weekend got off to a good start for the team with a personal best (at the time) 60-foot ET in their first qualifying run, before Saturday’s opening race saw them run what was the quickest Top Fuel pass in Australian history over the 1000-foot distance with a 3.767 second effort at 322.42 miles per hour, despite a red light.

In the next round, held on Sunday morning, the team bettered that marker even further with a 3.742 second pass at 325.22 miles per hour to officially rewrite the national record books while clinching the race win.

Two more passes beckoned for Sunday afternoon, with the penultimate race of the championship fight seeing the PremiAir Hire Top Fuel dragster lose a blower belt at half-track to set up a ‘winner takes all’ final against nearest title rival and two-time champion, Phil Lamattina.

The team made the most of the opportunity, returning with a vengeance to take a convincing final race win and the championship over Lamattina with a 3.76 second performance at dusk in front of a packed crowd.

“After Saturday night’s effort where we ran the quickest pass in Australia but I red lit, I really thought I had thrown the whole thing away to be honest and I didn’t get a lot of sleep that night!” Xiberras confessed.

“But here we are, we ended up in the final and to actually pull this off is what dreams are made of. I just can’t believe it.

“My crew, Timmy, Benny and the boys, they are the unsung heroes, the drivers seem to get all the credit, but it has to go to them. We were here till midnight on Saturday night just making sure everything was perfect and then we were back on Sunday morning at 6.30am to resume preparations – their commitment and their drive is just unbelievable.

“I also want to make a big mention of my wife and my kids – they are my rock and if it wasn’t for their support, I wouldn’t be here and I hope I have made them proud, I love them all to death.

“Of course, I also recognise our amazing sponsors, Rhino FSD, PremiAir Hire and especially Gulf Western Oil who are also the naming rights sponsor of the Winternationals – it is great to be able to do this for them at their event.

“I also want to thank Willowbank Raceway and 400 Thunder, and the other Top Fuel teams here this weekend – Jim Read Racing and Lamattina Top Fuel Racing who pushed and pushed, there were literally mere points between us and it was an absolute fight right to the end.

“I am just so grateful to everyone that has been involved in this journey and we are going to be celebrating this one for a long time.”

PremiAir Hire Racing Team Manager, Tim Adams, echoed Xiberras’ comments.

“We are so proud of our entire team, everyone dug so deep this weekend and there was absolutely nothing left on the table,” Adams said.

“It was getting so cold while we waited to commence the final and we were a little worried we might run into some shake as a result, but in the end, it was just perfect and here we are as the national champions, the event winner, the new national record holder, and the new track record holder – it doesn’t get much better than that!

“Thank you to everyone who has supported us in our journey over what has been a hectic and drawn-out season for all involved – we hope we have done you proud with this result!”

CHAMPIONSHIP SHOWDOWN LOOMS FOR PREMIAIR RACING

Posted by: Richard Smith In: racing 07 Jun 2021 Comments: 0 Tags: 400 Thunder, Drag Racing, Gulf Western Oil, IHRA, Peter Xiberras, PremiAir Hire Racing, Rhino FSD Pty Ltd, Top Fuel, Top Fuel Dragster, Willowbank Raceway

PremiAir Racing is readying to contest an epic Top Fuel championship showdown as part of the largest championship drag racing event held outside of North America this weekend (June 11-13).

The Gulf Western Oil Winternationals event, held at the team’s home-track of Willowbank Raceway, will host the final round of the 2019/2020/2021 400 Thunder Top Fuel Championship season.

PremiAir Racing is ideally placed to battle for the title, with team principal and driver Peter Xiberras currently second on the points ladder on 299 points – 25 points behind title leader Wayne Newby and 10 points ahead of Phil Lamattina.

While PremiAir Racing has tasted success at Willowbank before, with both Gold and Silver Christmas Tree trophies from previous events, it is yet to claim a Winternationals Gold.

“There is a lot to play for this weekend at Willowbank Raceway – the Winters win and the championship win are both on the line and it is anyone’s game,” Xiberras said.

“We have a Gold and Silver tree from Willowbank and also a Gold and Silver tree from Sydney, as well as current track records for Sydney and Perth, but the prestige of taking home a winning Winters trophy is something we are keenly focused on heading into this weekend.

“There’s no event like it and to top it off, the event is sponsored by our valued supporters Gulf Western Oil, so we will be pulling out all the stops to make sure we can secure the event and the title win this weekend.”

To prepare for the event, the team completed two test passes at the Winters Warm-Up on June 5.

“We put in some strong work at the official pre-Winters test weekend, playing around with some clutch settings to improve our short track times,” PremiAir Racing Team Manager, Tim Adams, explained.

“After recording a 60-foot time of .856 and 2.156 to the 330 in the second pass, we were pleased we had everything heading in the right direction and turned our attention to servicing the PremiAir Hire Top Fuel dragster ready for the main event.

“We will enjoy two qualifying passes at the event on the Friday ahead of a third on Saturday, before three epic ‘all in’ rounds of racing unfold across the Saturday and Sunday ahead of the ‘winner takes all’ final on Sunday afternoon.  

“We can’t wait to get after it at this fantastic event and look forward to seeing all the fans in the pits in between the runs – make sure you stop by and say hi!”

The Gulf Western Oil Winternationals will be held at Willowbank Raceway across June 11-13. Top Fuel qualifying passes are scheduled for 1.26pm and 3.23pm on Friday and 1.12pm on Saturday, ahead of racing at 3.33pm Saturday and 11.00am, 2.16pm and 4.30pm (final) on Sunday.

SUCCESSFUL SYDNEY SOJOURN FOR PREMIAIR HIRE RACING

Posted by: Richard Smith In: News, racing 10 May 2021 Comments: 0 Tags: 400 Thunder, Drag Racing, Gulf Western Oil, Peter Xiberras, PremiAir Hire Racing, Sydney Dragway, Top Fuel, Top Fuel Dragster

The Gulf Western Oils Nitro Thunder event may have been shortened to a one-day hit-out due to poor weather on Friday, but that didn’t stop PremiAir Hire Racing from pulling out all the stops for a great show of Top Fuel drag racing on Saturday.

By the time all four rounds of racing were run and won on Saturday, May 8, the Brisbane-based Top Fuel outfit walked away with three round wins, two personal best Elapsed Times (ET), a new track ET record, and the runner-up honours.

Those performances came in front of a packed crowd, which obviously enjoyed having Top Fuel back on-track after a long hiatus due to the impacts of COVID-19.

“I can’t tell you how great it was to be back on the track in a competitive environment after so long,” PremiAir Hire Racing Team Principal and Driver, Peter Xiberras, said.

“The track cooled off a lot between the third round when we set the record and the final. While you can run faster on a cooler track, you have to get the tune-up absolutely spot on and we just missed that.”

“While we might not have been able to secure the big trophy, I am exceptionally happy with three rounds wins, two PBs, a new track record and the runner-up award. The team did a fantastic job all day long and I am very proud of their efforts.”

Peter and the team weren’t just enjoying themselves on the track either.

“The atmosphere at the Gulf Western Oils Nitro Thunder event was just brilliant,” Xiberras explained.

“There was a fantastic crowd and we loved having everyone visit us in the pits again after so long between competitive events.

Our sponsor, Gulf Western Oils, was also the event sponsor and they set up a corporate hospitality area right next to our pit area, entertaining more than 1200 guests.”

“The atmosphere was just brilliant, and it will take a while for us to stop smiling after this one! We love racing, and putting on a show for the fans!”

The PremiAir Hire Racing Team will now return back to Brisbane to prepare the car for testing at the Winters Warm-Up (5-6 June) ahead of the season-ending Gulf Western Oil Winternationals (June 10-13) at its home track of Willowbank Raceway.

RACE WIN PUNCTUATES SANTO’S SUMMER THUNDER FOR PREMIAIR HIRE RACING

Posted by: Richard Smith In: Media, News, racing 27 Jan 2020 Comments: 0 Tags: 400 Thunder, ANDRA, Drag Racing, IHRA, Perth Motorplex, Sydney Dragway, Top Fuel, Top Fuel Dragster

The PremiAir Hire Racing team rounded out their Santo’s Summer Thunder experience at Sydney Dragway on Saturday evening (January 25) with a race victory over Damien Harris.

A better reaction time (0.64s versus 0.89s) saw Xiberras better Harris by one hundredth of a second at the finish line with a 3.872 second pass at 304.46 miles per hour over the Rapisarda Autosport International driver’s 3.857s/301.60mph effort.

The victory came after a strong yet challenging weekend for the PremiAir Hire Racing team, which conducted two shakedown passes on Friday evening ahead of the three-round, all-run format on Saturday.

The second pass of Friday evening saw the team come oh-so-close to their Personal Best ET of 3.853 seconds with a 3.854s effort at 308.43 miles per hour before Saturday’s hot and humid conditions saw the majority of the field sit out the final shakedown session before getting down to racing.

In the opening two rounds, Xiberras took on Phil Lamattina, with the first pass seeing the PremiAir Hire driver off the gas early before the second round resulted in the race being decided by just 19 thousandths of a second in Lamattina’s favour following an impressive full-track, side-by-side pass (3.884s/314.46mph to 3.915s/312.64s).

The final race was yet another impressive side-by-side pass at full flame, leaving the fans and the PremiAir Hire team grinning from ear to ear.

“It was great to end the weekend with a race win, even if we didn’t make it into the final,” Xiberras said.

“With the new combination in the PremiAir Hire dragster and these hot and humid conditions, we have been struggling to get the set-up right as we are essentially learning how to make the new combo work in this kind of weather with so much water in the air.

“While our second and third passes today were definitely strong, there is a lot more in it. The team will never give up and I think we made some really great progress across the weekend.

“Now we turn our attentions to Perth! We are all very excited to be heading over to the Perth Motorplex to race with ANDRA for the 49th annual Westernationals against some great Top Fuel racers, including this weekend’s runner-up Phil Lamattina!”

The 49th annual Westernationals will be held at the Peth Motorplex across February 29 and March 1 and will feature Top Fuel, Top Doorslammer, Top Fuel Motorcycle and the Summit Racing Equipment Sportsman Series. For event information, please go to www.motorplex.com.au/49th-annual-westernationals

PremiAir Hire Racing welcomes new star crew member

Posted by: Richard Smith In: racing 05 Oct 2019 Comments: 0 Tags: 400 Thunder, Drag Racing, Gulf Western Oil, Peter Xiberras, PremiAir Hire, Sydney Dragway, Top Fuel

Well-known and respected Australian Top Fuel crew member Ben Patterson has signed up to be part of the PremiAir Hire Racing team.

Ben has just returned home to Australia from Finland following a full season as co-crew chief for Anita Makela’s Top Fuel program which resulted in an FIA European Top Fuel Championship.

Ben has previously spent large amounts of the Australian winter for the past ten years in the US with Torrence Racing, Lagana Racing and Scott Palmer Racing and was also part of former Australian Top Fuel Champion Darren Morgan’s 08/09 season where he worked alongside PremiAir Hire Racing team manager, Tim Adams.

“When the opportunity came up to work with Tim and PremiAir Hire Racing I was very excited to get involved,” Ben said.

“I will be part of the team until May 2020 when I return to Finland, and with the brand new car and an action-packed season coming up I can’t wait to get into it.”

Tim says Ben will bring some valuable expertise to the Top Fuel racing outfit.

“Ben and I have been great mates for a long time, and he will bring a lot of great knowledge to our team thanks to his experience with the six-disc clutch and stage seven heads set-up that we have just moved to,” Tim said.

“Everyone at PremiAir Hire Racing is very excited to have Ben working with us, starting with our pre-season testing in four days this Friday and Saturday (October 11 and 12) with our brand-new Top Fueler in Sydney ahead of the 19/20 season opener there in November.”

WINTERS PROVIDES WARM WELCOME TO PREMIAIR HIRE RACING

Posted by: Richard Smith In: racing 10 Jun 2019 Comments: 0 Tags: 400 Thunder, Drag Racing, Gulf Western Oil, Peter Xiberras, PremiAir Hire, PremiAir Hire Racing, Top Fuel, Top Fuel Dragster, Willowbank Raceway

While for much of Gulf Western Oil Winternationals the weather was cold and rainy, the welcome from fans and racers alike for PremiAir Hire Racing was especially warm as the team made its comeback to racing at what is the largest drag racing event held outside of the US.

Peter Xiberras and his Top Fuel racing team have been on the sidelines since a major crash at Sydney Dragway in May of last year, but has been busy behind the scenes preparing for this weekend’s comeback at Willowbank Raceway.

Unfortunately the weather and a mechanical issue combined to reduce the Brisbane-based team’s on-track time to just two passes, but even so, the atmosphere was jovial as the team made its first steps towards what is expected to be a full tilt at the 19/20 Top Fuel Championship with a brand-new car.

“What a weekend it has been at Willowbank Raceway,” smiled Peter Xiberras.

“Results wise and track-time wise, it sure didn’t go our way. Rain saw us get only one qualifier instead of three, and then in the first round of racing I was matched up with Kelly Bettes and experienced a neutral safety switch failure – the switch is designed to neutralise the car in case the clutch welds at the end of the run so it can be pushed off the track safely without refiring the engine, but it failed and instead neutralised us at the end of the burnout!

“Even so, when we review our weekend overall we are grinning from ear to ear – the welcome we have received here at the Gulf Western Oil Winternationals has just been phenomenal and we are so glad to be back in amongst all the action and festivity of Top Fuel drag racing.

“Our congratulations goes to all of the racers on a great weekend at the race track, and especially to Wayne Newby on his well-deserved event and Top Fuel championship victory today.”

With their comeback now under their belt, PremiAir Hire Racing is looking ahead to what will be a large push for the 19/20 season.

“Our brand new car has arrived from the United States. It is currently in Melbourne and we are planning on testing in late September/early October ready for the season opener in November.

“Our sincere thanks goes to everyone who has supported us in our journey to this point, hopefully we can bring home some great results in thanks for your ongoing support in the upcoming season!”

NEXT GENERATION SOAKS UP WINTERNATS SIGHTS AND SOUNDS WITH PREMIAIR HIRE RACING

Posted by: Richard Smith In: racing 06 Jun 2019 Comments: 0 Tags: Gulf Western Oil, Horizons College, Horizons College of Learning and Enrichment, Jane Robinson, Peter Xiberras, PremiAir Hire, PremiAir Hire Racing, Top Fuel, Willowbank Raceway

Day one of the Gulf Western Oil Winternationals has not only hosted plenty of on-track action and off-track preparation for around 500 race teams today, but also an enthusiastic group of students from Horizons College.

The 20 students from the non-state Special Assistance School based in Caboolture are all studying an Auto Certificate Course and were hosted by Top Fuel team PremiAir Hire Racing today at what is the largest championship drag racing event held outside of the US.

As part of their Winternationals experience, the students were able to witness driver Peter Xiberras and his crew completing their final preparations ahead of Peter’s highly anticipated comeback to racing tomorrow.

They also took in some great qualifying action from the popular Sportsman racing categories and spent a large amount of time with PremiAir Hire Racing Crew Chief, Tim Adams, who taught them all about what it takes to get a 10,000hp Top Fuel dragster down the drag strip.

“We were very pleased to be able to provide this special experience with the help of Willowbank Raceway to these students,” Adams said.

“This event is particularly special for us as it marks the comeback to Top Fuel racing for the PremiAir Hire Racing team and for our driver Peter Xiberras following his well-publicised crash in Sydney in May of last year.

“Today has been an intense day of final preparations and for the Horizons College students to be involved in that process is something very unique indeed. With each of them keen on pursuing an automotive-based career, it was great to be able to show them up close the intricacies of our sport.”

Horizons College Deputy Principal, Jane Robinson, said experiences like the one offered today by PremiAir Hire Racing and Willowbank Raceway are very important for the school and its students.

“Horizons College of Learning and Enrichment is all about assisting young people for whom mainstream education is not meaningful. The school commenced in 2014 and now caters for students across years 7-12,” Robinson explained.

“This is the fifth year in a row that we have been able to send some very well-deserving students to this amazing event with the support of the Raceway and some very generous race teams.

“This is an opportunity that many of these students would not have had otherwise. It is a true highlight of their year; feeding their passion and inspiring them to continue to learn. We are very grateful to Willowbank Raceway and PremiAir Hire Racing for the experiences they have provided to our students today.”

PremiAir Hire Racing will be on-track at the Gulf Western Oil Winternationals from tomorrow (Friday June 7) with qualifying to mark the official comeback to racing for the team. Qualifying will continue on Saturday June 8 ahead of eliminations racing on Sunday June 9.
