Triple Eight Race Engineering, branded as Red Bull Ampol Racing in Supercars, is an Australian motor racing team competing in the Supercars Championship. The team has been the only Brisbane-based V8 Supercar team since its formation, originally taking over and operating out of the former Briggs Motor Sport workshop in Bowen Hills during the 2003 season before moving to Banyo in 2009. The team has won the Supercars drivers' championship eleven times, the teams' championship twelve times and the Bathurst 1000 ten times.
The team currently runs two Chevrolet Camaro ZL1s for Broc Feeney and Will Brown. Additionally, the team provides technical support to Team Sydney, Team 18 and Matt Stone Racing. The team performs its testing at Queensland Raceway.
Originally affiliated with champion British Touring Car Championship race team Triple Eight Racing and owned by Peter Butterly, Roland Dane, Ian Harrison and Derek Warwick, Dane later took majority ownership, with Harrison maintaining a minority shareholding.[1] In late 2015, Dane sold approximately a 30% shareholding in the team to Paul Dumbrell, Tim Miles and Trinette Schipkie.[2] In 2021 Scottish millionaire Tony Quinn bought a 40% share of the team.[3]
