John Bowe was our very first guest on the V8 Sleuth Podcast powered by Repco, and this week he returns to tell more stories from his career. In Part 1 of a two-part episode, JB tells a few stories about growing up in Tasmania, watching racing at the old Longford road circuit, and why he got into racing open wheelers instead of sedans. He also talks about his years racing for Garrie Cooper’s legendary Elfin team, plus his maiden touring car season racing a Volvo 240T and one of the fastest cars of its era – the VesKanda sports car.
