We are joined by Phil Branagan, a writer for www.motorsport.com and Autosport, to cast an expert eye over the 2024 Repco V8 Supercars grid and assess their chances ahead of Round 1 this weekend at Bathurst.

Despite the reported breakdown of its relationship with champion driver Brodie Kostecki, we explore why the ingredients for Erebus' success are still intact. Additionally, we delve into how Will Brown's transition to Red Bull carries an added weight of expectation.

Grove Racing emerges as a new powerhouse on the grid, equipped with all the right elements to challenge for supremacy. Meanwhile, teams like DJR are endeavoring to recapture the magic through expanded teams, restructures, downsizes, and more.

And a crucial question looms: have we finally achieved parity in the new Gen 3 era between Mustang and Camaro? This podcast serves as your perfect snapshot guide, offering insights into the dynamics before the racing action kicks off at Mount Panorama.
