Australian motorsport veteran David Russell joins us for this week’s edition of the V8 Sleuth Podcast powered by Castrol.
Over two parts, the racer known as both ‘Coighty’ and ‘D-Russ’ takes us back through his diverse career behind the wheel, culminating in his reputation as one of Supercars’ top co-drivers.
In Part 1 he talks about his dad’s racing, why he didn’t go via the traditional karting route and starting his racing career in his mid-teens aboard two very different machines: a turbocharged Datsun Sports Sedan and a bog-standard Suzuki Swift!
He also covers his years in GT Production with Proton, the competition that kick-started his Supercars career, racing in the Bathurst 12 Hour, and some of the behind-the-scenes wheeling and dealing to move up the ladder.
