Success built on success!

In part two we pick up the story in 1973 when Goss was already a well-established star in touring cars and had extended his racing into Sports Sedans and the fearsome Formula 5000's. The story continues to include his unsuccessful appearance at the le mans 24 Hour classic in a Porsche. Goss's early career rivals all his contemporaries - raced there, won that could have been his motto!

The Early Years

There have been many drivers who've won the Australian Grand Prix, pre-Formula One and many more who've won the Bathurst 500/1000 since the race started in 1960 at Phillip Island but there is only ONE driver who's won both - John Goss! Part One of his podcast series introduces John's early career racing in Tasmania, through to the early 1970's driving Falcon Touring Cars.

In Part 2 of our chat with Wally Storey, we move on to his time as a senior engineer in several of the bigger, more successful teams in the Supercars world. After his time with the Holden Racing Team he helped set up the Wayne Gardner/Coca-Cola-sponsored team, before moving on to Tasman Motorsport and Brad Jones Racing.

His behind-the-scenes recollections give us a fascinating insight into how teams sometimes operate; how drivers like Brock Feeney got their start in the 'main game', and how sponsorships can determine the fate of drivers and teams.

Wally is almost certainly one of those who has 'been there, done that!'
