About this episode
Our ‘Where are They Now’ episode with Max Wilson. The adopted Aussie is now back home in Brazil but he reflects on a chapter of his career in Supercars that he cherishes.
How he thought the establishment were trying to intimidate him in the first season, having words with Garth Tander and a funny moment that followed when Max tried to square the ledger.
He reveals how he shaped up to Russell Ingall in Canberra before he and 'The Enforcer' became friends. How his friend Luciano Burti introduced him to legendary Aussie driver manager Greg ‘Pee Wee’ Siddle (who you can also find in the Rusty’s Garage library) and how a fear of helicopters became very real over the north coast waters of New South Wales.
Plus, memories of Sir Frank Williams, Patrick Head and testing for their famous F1 team to money talking at Minardi, loyalty in Champcar, winning the fiercely competitive Brazilian Stock Car title and more.
