It’s around $400,000 a year; that’s running a team of 10, going to about six events a year. Our major sponsor is our own firm, PremiAir Hire. Carmen and I started the company in an old milking shed on my dad’s farm at Richmond, NSW, back in 1994; at first we just serviced air compressors, but we grew and diversified into hiring out generators and lighting towers. PremiAir now has a dozen branches in four states, and employs 150 people.

There doesnt appear to be any new sponsors & that would worry RACE, the new owners.
Not a fan of Adderton either.

Then again when the team you actually signed a contract with no longer exists....

Apparently the drivers are still contracted to Webb, weren't included in the deal.

If correct, the drivers need legal advice.

I fail to see how Webb hasn't already breached that contract and invalidated it?

What is the wording of each of the individual driver contracts?

Note that they are reported as different, one bringing backing presumably for a placement fee, the other being paid to drive. Are the sponsors committed in the above now on the hook to pay for the year despite not being on the car?

Are the driver deals personal service deals that may or may not include driving race cars?
Or are they specific around driving race cars?

And if they keep receiving consideration for the continuation of these deals, is not driving the car enough to frustrate them at law?

Interesting fun isnt it...?

PremiAir Hire website coming up with: Bandwith Limit Exceeded. Just when thought the change of ownership may have brought the frugal spending to an end.

Coulthard + Golding would be a handy lineup for PremiAir Racing!

Though using outdated 888 customer cars would continue to be an impediment. Although, the presumably up-to-date Team 18 customer cars are not race winners either.

Should PremiAir racing purchase 2x as-raced 2021 888 cars, fitted with more modern componentry, or even seek an alternative technical partner OR purchase some CNC machines and develop their own componentry?

Given that it is effectively going to be a new team, even with two brand new, full spec 888 spankers PremAir Racing would still probably find itself in the back half of the field. This year is going to be more of a learning year, any movement up the ranks won't happen until 2023.

I wouldn't expect fireworks from them either. They won't be completely off the pace, but they need a bit of luck to break into the top 10. I wish them well, but it's gonna be a long process with development

The website has probably been like Renee Gracie's OnlyFans page and had a good number of curiosity hits, it is easy to understand why. The fact it is out of bandwidth is a good sign already and I'm sure that the required increase will be made accordingly

Yes, it probably isn't coping with the traffic and needs an update. Shows how well they've done to get people to follow their progress
