Fitzgerald Racing Services – Born in 1994.
​
The organisation was born when the then chairman of Porsche Cars Australia enticed Peter Fitzgerald to set up his own Racing and Services operation following Peter's spectacular racing results in Porsche Cup and Production Car categories with the ubiquitous 944 Turbo and 968 Club Sport.
Your Preferred Third-Party Tuner for Porsche
Fitzgerald Racing Services are the preferred third-party tuner for Porsche Australia and originally operated out of the Porsche facility in Richmond, Victoria.
Long-time friend and race engineer Bob Hiscock of Advent Automotive who prepared all of Peter's race cars sold the business and came to work for the organisation full time at the start of operations.
The core of our business being performance enhancements together with maintenance and support for all types of Porsches ranging from club sprint cars to GT2 Porsche Cup winners.

Behind the Legend
Peter Fitzgerald is one of Australian motorsport's best-known and
most-successful names.

his focus in the Fitzgerald Racing Team by not only managing the team cars
for each race but also giving the team and its sponsors as much
support as possible.
