We have the golden summer of Speedway in Australia covered, as well as your Motorsport news fix to start your year right!  We’re back with the first show of 2024 with one of the best in business to preview a mega couple of weeks of racing and Rusty is hoping for third time lucky with J-Mac (after the last pod chat, the Knoxville Nationals didn’t go so well) but with the Grand Annual Sprintcar Classic at Warrnambool’s Premier Speedway just around the corner and the Aussie Title almost upon us, this episode had to be done! J-Mac is ready to go again at the wheel of the Hodges Motorsport #5, savouring the exhilarating experience of being back in command for an elite owner group that boasts AFL legend Jack Riewoldt, Indycar driver Scott McLaughlin, media sensation Gerard Whateley, and the mastermind behind sports TV production, Tim Hodges.  Amidst the action-packed world of racing, Rusty also unveils Santa's gift for the next-generation McFadden racer.
