Plus we spoke to Matt Chahda ahead of his long awaited Bathurst 1000 debut in the wildcard entry this October

We were joined by Brett Ralph the new majority owner of Dick Johnson Racing and while his name might be new to fans in Supercars, the Ralph family has an impressive portfolio of involvement in professional sporting teams from the Melbourne Aces baseball team, the Sunshine Coast Lightning Super Netball team, and the Melbourne Storm. We spoke to Brett about the DJR acquisition and got his thoughts on what the future holds.

The Sandown SuperSprint is in the history books and it was a neck and neck battle between Will Davison and Shane van Gisbergen. At a track that is usually dominated by Triple Eight, Dick Johnson Racing took first blood with a double podium on Saturday, before SVG fought back on Sunday to turn the tables. We look at the fallout from the weekend, plus we speak to the new majority owner of DJR as Brett Ralph joins us on the show.

We're still a week and a bit away from the OTR SuperSprint at The Bend Motorsport Park but there's been a lot happening off track. We had the shocking news that Pukekohe will no longer be a venue for motorsport in New Zealand and Supercars visit to the circuit next month will be the last, and earlier in the week Shane van Gisbergen was banned by his team Triple Eight from taking part in the TransAm series. We unpack all the off track dramas, and we chat to Jono Beikoff who turned a lot of heads at the Townsville 500 in an AU Falcon!

When Beikoff Racing rolled out an AU Falcon in the Super2/Super3 grid at the Townsville 500, our social media went into meltdown with our listeners and fans getting in touch with us to try and get someone from the team to talk about this old school Supercar that was in action against some of the Super2 big hitters like Triple Eight, Tickford Racing, and Matt White Motorsport. We spoke to Jono Beikoff and got the full backstory of this true privateer team in the category!

Chace Karpenko has made his way from Junior Sedans to Sprintcars and everything in between - winning championships in each division on his way to the top and he joined us ahead of CoT in August.

Despite being contracted, Lee Holdsworth found himself out of a seat and out of options for a full time drive at the end of the 2020 season. But a lifeline with Walkinshaw Andretti United landed him a co-drive with Chaz Mostert for Bathurst last year, which lead to a breakthrough maiden win at Mount Panorama for Holdsworth and Mostert's second. Now he's back on the grid full time once again driving for Penrite Racing in one of the front running teams, and we spoke to Leethal who made his return to the show for the first time since winning the Great Race!
