    John Kennard's time as Paddon's right-hand man

    John Kennard's time as Paddon's right-hand man

    John Kennard is a well-respected member of any service park he enters, and on this episode of the podcast, he discusses his longtime partnership with New Zealand’s best, Hayden Paddon.
    From humble beginnings in 2005, while still settling back into New Zealand life, Kennard was impressed by the teenage Paddon who had the highest of ambitions.
    He explains to Peter Whitten the ups and downs of the early career and the career-altering offer that got them into a World Rally Car for the first time when all seemed lost at the end of the 2013 season.
    Kennard also talks about their rise to the top of the WRC with Hyundai, from learning the ropes at the top level to the feeling of winning in Argentina in 2016, to the lows that followed immediately after and what continued through 2017.

    John Kennard's days as worldwide team manager

    John Kennard's days as worldwide team manager

    New Zealander John Kennard is best known for his co-driving days with Hayden Paddon, but as we learn in this podcast, his career was long and decorated before that.
    Kennard takes time out of his busy schedule to chat on our DustTrails Podcast and in the first episode of two, he explains his early career and the steps that took him to the top of the sport.
    After getting his start with Brent Rawstron in New Zealand, he competed in the 1000 Lakes Rally in the 1980s and also got a World Rally Championship podium at Rally New Zealand alongside Malcolm Stewart.
    Kennard chats about his time with the Subaru World Rally Team which started at the famous 1995 Rally Catalunya in which he was tasked with hailing down the flying Colin McRae.
    The career then took him to Kenya for months at a time and also to the USA for an all-conquering program with Mitsubishi.

    Glenn Macneall’s co-driving experiences the world over

    Glenn Macneall’s co-driving experiences the world over

    With over 100 WRC starts to his name and more than 300 rallies under his belt, Glenn Macneall is Australia’s most decorated co-driver.
    Having begun his career by winning the inaugural Daihatsu Challenge alongside Leigh Hynes, the West Australian quickly made his mark and climbed the co-driving ranks.
    He sat beside his boyhood idol, Greg Carr, in a works Hyundai, then teamed up with international stars Greg Graham, ‘Monster’ Tajima, Toshi Arai and Chris Atkinson.
    Most recently, Macneall has guided Scott Pedder in the Australian Rally Championship, and while his major focus is business rather than co-driving, he still has plenty to give.

    Peggy Bourne reflects on Possum the man

    Peggy Bourne reflects on Possum the man

    So often besides our heroes are irreplaceable partners, and to Possum Bourne, it was his wife Peggy.
    She would be at events, following and supporting Possum around the globe to the point where she was a regular in the service park, her ever-smiling face instantly recognisable.
    In this episode of our DustTrails Podcast, Peter Whitten speaks to Peggy about her life with the seven-time Australian Rally Champion.
    They talk about the circumstances in which she met Possum and how she became so impressed at the man he was, and the father that he became.
    Admittedly, this is not an interview about Possum’s rallying in a blow-by-blow form, but a reflection on who he was and how he affected all those around him.
