Talking with Wayne Bell is never a dull experience, and for this episode of DustTrails, we catch up with the New South Welshman about his Marlboro Holden Dealer Team days.

Bell was a big part of the team, and he describes his describes his up-and-down relationship with Holden through the years of the Australian Rally Championship and the 1979 Repco Round Australia Trial.

From the Gemini to the Commodore, there’s many a story to tell.

Peter Whitten chats with 'Belly', and there are plenty of laughs along the way.

In 2004, Dean Herridge was at the peak of his powers – he stunningly took Group N victory at Rally New Zealand and won the Rally of Canberra.

For this episode of DustTrails, we’re backtracking to Rally New Zealand that year with Herridge to relive arguably his greatest achievement.

It was in the heyday of hard-fought Group N wins, and the West Australian was up against a high-class Production World Rally Championship field of factory WRC drivers and World Champions.

This was all after Herridge, co-driver Glenn Macneall, and Subaru Rally Team Australia were shell-shocked after the first round of the Australian series, soundly beaten by a young charger by the name of Chris Atkinson.

After Subaru left the Australian Rally Championship at the end of 2019, you’d have forgiven Molly Taylor for having a quieter 2020.

However, even with the global pandemic, she managed a Tasmanian state rally win, a second-place finish in the National Capital Rally in Canberra, starred on a reality TV show and signed with a Formula 1 World Champion’s brand new team. What a year!

Peter Whitten talks to her about her 2020 calendar year, most notably her experience on the TV show, SAS Australia, where she did the motorsport world proud.

It was the first time since Chris Atkinson in 2006 that a local driver had mixed it with the world’s best at our home round of the World Rally Championship, and Coffs Harbour local, Nathan Quinn, didn’t disappoint.

While he wasn’t in a works team, or at the level that Atkinson was at seven years earlier, the fanfare and experience surrounding him that weekend is one that Quinn will remember forever.

Peter Whitten chats to Nathan Quinn about how the drive in the Motorsport Italia Mini John Cooper Works WRC came about, how he prepared for the ‘drive of a lifetime’, and whether his performance and his result met his expectations.

Australian rally driver, Michael Guest, is the opening guest on the DustTrails Podcast and sensationally reveals that he was facing the death penalty before competing in a World Rally Championship round in 1999.

Guest was in the first year of a three-year program contesting the World Rally Championship when officials impounded his car and shut down the WRC service park.

In an exclusive interview for RallySport Magazine’s Peter Whitten, Guest tells how the story unfolded, and how for a while, he was fearing for his life.

He also talks about his WRC career from Group N, to F2, to the Hyundai World Rally Team.
