We’re talking to Tony D’Alberto on this week’s episode of the V8 Sleuth Podcast. In the first part of a two-part chat, he talks about his family’s history in motorsport and with Holden, racing karts as a family team and briefly progressing to Formula Ford before jumping into V8 Supercars with Holden Young Lions.

He shares a funny story about his first drive of a V8 Supercar at Morgan Park with his new team boss John Faulkner in the passenger’s seat, and the eventual decision to go back to a family-run squad to progress his career and the story of his Development Series title win in 2007. Part 1 wraps up with the rough welcome he received upon his graduation to the ‘main game’ in 2008 and his early years in the V8 Supercars Championship.
