Episode 148 The Golden Era Auto Racing (GEAR) Club.

I went to Sydney Motorsports Park to attend a GEAR Club event - my first. I loved it and interviewed a number of the drivers who had brought some interesting machinery. This episode introduces the GEAR Club to those who have not heard of it and is a starting point for a range on interviews to follow.

Episode 146 Sydney Harbour Concours d’Elegance.

And now for something completely different. Owners of classic cars are used to hand built machines, so it was logical to have Jordan Uyi at the Concours representing the bespoke tailor, Renkhoe Jordan. I spoke with Jordan about the joys of having a hand-made suit and why many of the car owners and visitors would appreciate the clothing.

Episode 145 Sydney Harbour Concours d’Elegance.

Peter Harburg has one of the rarest cars on the planet - a Porsche 917/30 - one of only 5 built and helped Porsche take away McLaren's domination of the CanAm series in the 1970s. His car was built by the factory and has been restored to the true racing colours.
