Penrite Racing has unveiled its new-look Ford Mustang Supercars featuring special Perth Bears branding ahead of the 2026 Bosch Power Tools Perth Super 440.

Aussie Garage was invited to Penrite’s Bayswater facility in Western Australia for the official reveal. The event brought together Penrite Racing drivers Matt Payne and Kai Allen, team ambassadors, classic vehicles and passionate local motorsport fans.

Penrite Racing Partners With the Perth Bears

The new partnership between Penrite Racing and the Perth Bears was a major focus of the evening.

The distinctive Perth Bears branding gives the team’s Ford Mustang Supercars a fresh appearance while creating an exciting connection between two professional sporting organisations.

Fans attending the event were among the first to see the new-look Mustangs before they hit the track at MotorMall Wanneroo Raceway.

Matt Payne Leads the Supercars Championship

Championship leader and reigning Bathurst winner Matt Payne spoke about the pressure that comes with carrying the orange number on his Ford Mustang.

Payne discussed his determination to achieve a strong result in Perth and continue building his championship campaign. Racing at Wanneroo presents its own challenges, but Payne is aiming to deliver another competitive performance for Penrite Racing.

He also spoke about the challenge of defending his Bathurst crown. Winning Australia’s most famous touring car race is an incredible achievement, but repeating that success requires another outstanding performance from both the driver and the entire team.

Kai Allen Returns to Wanneroo Raceway

Kai Allen also shared his thoughts ahead of the Perth Super 440.

Allen has previous experience and success at Wanneroo Raceway, giving him valuable knowledge of the fast and demanding Western Australian circuit.

Alongside Payne, Allen will play an important role in Penrite Racing’s fight for both the Drivers’ Championship and Teams’ Championship. With both cars performing strongly, the Perth round represents another important opportunity for the team to secure valuable points.

A Special Evening for Perth Motorsport Fans

The Penrite Racing event offered much more than the new Supercars reveal. It was a relaxed and family-friendly evening featuring classic vehicles, team merchandise, food trucks and plenty of opportunities for motorsport supporters to connect.

Fans were able to get close to the cars, hear directly from the drivers and enjoy the atmosphere ahead of one of Western Australia’s biggest motorsport events.

Events like this help bring professional motorsport closer to the community while building excitement before the racing begins.

The 2026 Bosch Power Tools Perth Super 440

The Bosch Power Tools Perth Super 440 will bring the Supercars Championship back to MotorMall Wanneroo Raceway.

The circuit is known for its elevation changes, fast corners and challenging layout. It regularly delivers close racing and provides limited opportunities for drivers to recover from mistakes.

For Penrite Racing, the Perth round will be another important step in its pursuit of the Drivers’ and Teams’ Championships. Local fans will also get their first opportunity to see the Perth Bears Ford Mustang Supercars competing on track.
