About this listen
You’ll know Sam & the Shahin name from the incredible complex they’ve created in South Australia - The Bend Motorsport Park.
This is an incredible story of a family leaving its war torn homeland for what they hoped would be a better life down under.
An ad for a service station & how it leapt out at Sam’s father - the beginning of a dynasty in this space built on the back of hard work, vision & drive.
How Sam left a promising career in medicine to work in the family business & the lengths he went to ‘tool up’ for the role.
Where the idea for The Bend came from, the process to get it over the line, and the journey of discovery that took him right round the world to understand the best way to build it.
From the moment Sam candidly begins speaking you’ll be drawn into this conversation and he kindly shares details of his life and how it lead to Motorsport (in his 40’s) that aren’t widely known.
