The Motorsport Brief - J-Mac is back Ahead of Adelaide

With Sprintcars on the VAILO Adelaide 500 schedule, we thought it was time for another catchup with world renowned driver, James McFadden who will be racing the NAPA Auto Parts backed Hodges Motorsport #5 in Adelaide. The Aussie speedway star made an emotional speech at the recent High Limit Series banquet announcing his retirement from full time racing in the USA, but it’s not the end of the road. J-Mac talks about the reasons behind his shock decision, explains what’s next and shares some highs and lows from his time in the States. We look ahead to a significant moment for the sport (in this part of the world) and what his expectations are with the Hodges Motorsport team this weekend. It’s been a hell of a ride for J-Mac, but as you’ll hear he’s at the peak of his game and still deeply loves turning left and standing on the gas! Enjoy the ride. A huge thank you to Tim Hodges from Hodges Motorsport for making this chat possible. The 2024 VAILO Adelaide 500 is the 25th edition of the event, General Admission tickets start from $39 and can be bought at Ticketmaster, which includes access to NAPA Speedway, Boost Mobile AUSX Supercross Sprint and after-race concert series headlined by Cold Chisel and Crowded House.

The Motorsport Brief - Greg Murphy

The ‘Grig & Grig’ show is back after Murph’s recent run in a VN Commodore in the awesome Heritage Touring Car support races at the Bathurst 1000 where he was also a Fanbassador! The gig went so well he is now off to the season ending VAILO Adelaide 500 in a similar role. Speedway, Supercross, plus Cold Chisel, Crowded House and now with added Murph! The 2024 VAILO Adelaide 500 is the 25th edition of the event, General Admission tickets start from $39 and can be bought at Ticketmaster, which includes access to NAPA Speedway, Boost Mobile AUSX Supercross Sprint and after-race concert series headlined by Cold Chisel and Crowded House.

Why the best is yet to come for Ryan Wood at Walkinshaw Andretti United, Richie Stanaway’s new home and why he’s flying again. There’s the new Next Gen championship over summer which fittingly includes the next generation of Murphy’s getting behind the wheel and the mic! It wouldn’t be complete without some thoughts on Liam Lawson’s performance at the F1 races in Texas and Mexico, where the next young Kiwi open wheel stars might come from as the Tony Quinn Foundation continues to help open doors. And Murph’s passionate pursuit of better driving standards for young motorists in his native New Zealand through his excellent Street Smart program.

Josh Buchan - Part 2

Recorded at Focus Driver Performance Centre at Sydney Motorsport Park, Rusty and Josh chatted before he hopped into his Hyundai Elantra TCR car to continue the defence of his 2023 Australian Title. Buchan was on double duty, driving a McLaren in the GT4 Championship at SMSP too, where he finished 2nd outright on Sunday and took a class win. Josh discusses his time in TCR, how he got the big break with HMO Customer Racing, what it was like working with the legendary Rob Benson, the nail biting finish to last year’s championship and how close he went to losing it. He talks about working with Hyundai away from the track and the passion behind the N performance brand - including the Aussie influences. Plus, taking on the TCR World Tour teams and drivers and what the future holds for this proper student of Motorsport who still can’t believe he’s made a life based round cars, car culture and of course racing!

Josh Buchan - Part 1

The TCR Australia Champion is a great case study in backing yourself even when the odds seem against you. Josh Buchan candidly shares his humble upbringing, the connection to cars that inspired him as a young bloke and how he literally took a punt to make it to the next kart race meeting. He discusses the phone calls he made and the lessons he learned outside the car to try and open doors to Formula Ford and Formula 3 on the pathway. Then there’s the epic race machines he’s driven at David Dicker’s impressive facility on the South Island of New Zealand before Josh had the chance to tear up Sydney Motorsport Park for Rodin Cars in the World Time Attack Challenge. Even if you don’t know Josh you’ll be gripped by his story and his story telling. No doubt we’ll be hearing more of him in the years to come.

The Motorsport Brief - Bruno Senna back down under

Rusty just happened to be in town when Bruno Senna jetted in to do some night driving at Sydney Motorsport Park as a part of his role with McLaren Automotive. The pair chatted over coffee at the McLaren Sydney dealership about Bruno’s time in F1, his legendary Uncle - the late Ayrton Senna - the rise of Aussie Oscar Piastri and the brutal past few weeks for Daniel Ricciardo. Plus, the intense scrutiny he endured during his own career as well as a decade dedicated to McLaren on the automotive side which keeps the Senna name connected to the famous marque. Bruno shares a rarely known personal story on Ayrton and what we might expect from the new Netflix series which is due out next month. This special bonus ep is a beauty. Fire it up…..you won’t be disappointed! Head to Rusty's Facebook, Twitter or Instagram and give us your feedback and let us know who you want to hear from on Rusty's Garage.
