In the second and final part of our two-part chat, he talks more about the late Mike Raymond and how his impact on touring car racing’s TV coverage went well beyond his commentary, what it was like in the battlefield that was the Bathurst 1000 winner’s podium ceremony, and his thoughts and insight into the ‘Battle for Bathurst’ between V8 Supercars and the ARDC/Channel 7 in the mid-1990s. He also shares stories from some of his other ‘combat missions’ during his time at Channel 7, including commentating and hosting the Olympic Games coverage, and opens up about his sudden and unexpected exit from the network. He also tackles your National Motor Racing Museum Couch Racer Questions, which turned up some great tales - including his drive of a future Supercars legend's Formula Ford!
