The V8 Sleuth Podcast

We’ve got a double serve of Greg Crick on the V8 Sleuth Podcast this week. In the final part of our three-part chat, Cricky continues to talk about the impacts of the 2014 Bathurst 12 Hour on his health, his fightback to go racing in Touring Car Masters and how concussions played their part, and what finally brought an end to his driving career. He also talks about what he’s up to these days at Garry Rogers Motorsport – including the ‘Garry, Barry and Larry show’ – and he answers your National Motor Racing Museum Couch Racer Questions.

We’ve got a double serve of Greg Crick on the V8 Sleuth Podcast this week. In the second part of our three-part chat, Cricky shares more of his memories of Targa Tasmania and why the event will never be the same again. We also talk about his years racing V8 Supercars, including driving for Bob Forbes, Pinnacle Motorsport, John Alcorn, Kees and Paul Weel, and his sole race with Stone Brothers Racing alongside good mate Marcos Ambrose and why it all went wrong. We also chat about his Nations Cup Dodge Viper and his star turn against ex-F1 racer Mika Salo at the 2014 Bathurst 12 Hour – how it was the best race he ever had, and opens up on the traumatic health consequences that followed.

We’re talking to Greg Crick on this week’s episode of the V8 Sleuth Podcast. In the first part of a three-part chat, Cricky talks about growing up just over a mile from the Longford road circuit in Tasmania, watching the F1 heroes of the day and deciding to go racing himself. He also talks about some of the wild machines he raced early in his career, from his first FJ Holden and a turbocharged XU-1 Torana, through to a speedway-inspired Mazda RX-7 sports sedan and his iconic Australian title-winning Honda Prelude. He also shares some hilarious stories (including the time he was ‘arrested’ by Victoria Police’s Armed Robbery Squad during Sandown 500 practice!) and his first time racing in the Bathurst 1000. He also explains his decision to turn his attention to touring car racing, plus becoming teammates with Sir Jack Brabham in winning the inaugural Targa Tasmania.
