Robbie Phillis | Part 2 - WSBK wins and brain hemorrhages
About this episode
The move to Team Green and why timing is everything. In many ways Robbie was ahead of the sport’s international growth curve.
Losing a remote control plane over the aerospace division at Kawasaki HQ and please explains from their security.
Hotrodding Golf Carts at Sugo and taking a bit of bark off.
Wowing fans at home at Phillip Island and ballsy rides at Spa in Belgium.
Waking up in hospital in France after one of around 200 career crashes but refusing to give up.
Developing a cutting edge Norton powered bike to tackle Daytona and falling in love with racing all over again at the Island Classic.
Plus his friendship with the great Peter Brock, how Johnny Harvey would run strategy for Robbie at some of the endurance races, and trail riding with Jimmy Richards.
And there’s a little known story of Larry Perkins throwing his leg over a Katana and holding it wide open.
If you enjoy straight talk, a good laugh and yarns about a cool era of racing this is a must listen!
