As always with an event with the scope and scale of Australia's International Enduro, there were lots of highpoints - but some stuff that needs some explaining, too.

Kenny & Co ONCE again Bathurst delivered a winning combination filled with emotion, passion and best of all a superb backstory. Kenny Habul's

COMMENT: Does it feel like the 12-Hour, or has it been ruined?
MOUNT PANORAMA emerging into sight from behind a haze of mist rather than one of heat was the first indication that this isn’t your average LIQUI MOLY Bathurst 12 Hour. When 2020 running of Australia’s International Enduro launched into life just before 6am, the Central West of New South Wales was already basking in 30-degree temperatures and that’s before the sun poked its head up over the Mountains to the East. This morning it was single-digit cold and while the weekend is looking far more promising from a weather standpoint than it could have, it’s still far from the scorching

Quality is the name of the game this year at the Liqui Moly Bathurst 12 Hour, an event that shapes up to have many and varied storylines, from a field where it is hard to pick a winner. Here we run our rule over ten things to keep an eye on as we go once around the clock on Sunday at The Mountain. 1. The AM Pace While the Pro drivers are sure to battle out the finish, the race will be won by the AM drivers in each combination. With this year’s smaller field, there is less chance of

It was an icon on the Australian rally scene. Sure, the classic yumps and jumps of the Bunnings Stage at Perth’s iteration of Rally Australia were memorable, but they couldn’t hold a candle to the longevity, the legend, and the carnage of the Mineshaft on the Rally of Canberra. Situated half an hour south-west of Canberra along the awesome Paddy’s River Road towards Tidbinbilla, the Mineshaft was the go-to spectator point of any rally through the forestry outside of Canberra. Unlike Any Other… These days, cars cannot commute the Mineshaft, with ACT forestry rangers curtailing its use after bush bashing
Continue readingRiding Shotgun: Tales from the Passenger Seat
I’m no race driver, but I’ve been very fortunate over the years to be given a reasonable approximation of what it’s like by riding shotgun alongside a wide range of drivers, in a diverse array of vehicles on many different tracks. Unlike practically any other sport on the face of the planet, motorsport lets lucky outsiders feel just what it is like to be involved for real in the heat of competition. Sometimes, passenger rides are more real than others... Little Mark having the best day ever... They say you never forget your first time, and I promise I never
