About this episode
Sprintcar driver James McFadden returns home to Warrnambool in Victoria, to team up with IndyCar driver and former supercar Champion Scott McLaughlin, three-time AFL Premiership player Jack Riewoldt, Journalist and broadcaster Gerard Whateley and hometown legend turned award winning tv producer Tim Hodges to try take out the 50th running of the Warrnambool Sprintcar Classic.
What began with skids in a Go Kart around a motor registry car park became a life on the road chasing the US Speedway dream. It's a motorsport story that deserves greater recognition and we're proud to be making noise about it. Join Greg 'Rusty' Rust and loyal Garage listener James McFadden as they talk engine builds for one of the best in Supercars, vivid recollections of holding it wide open in his Dad's racecar which had a huge impact on him and the raw beauty of going sideways with immense horsepower on tap.
J-Mac is not only an amazing ambassador for Sprintcars, his authentic storytelling and down to earth nature makes him a great ambassador for motorsport as a whole.
