Episode 13
Over recent years McLaren has proven to be one of the world's top supercar manufacturers and this week Morley looks at one of the cars that put them on that path to recognition, a 2014 McLaren 650s Spider. This car not only stands out in a crowd but Morley tells us why it's one of the few supercar convertibles that also stand out on the track.
Coming up at the end of this year are two of this country's top Tarmac Rallies. Based in Cairns, the Targa Great Barriers gets under way in September and coming out of Victoria's premier ski resort, Mount Buller – the Targa High Country is set to run in November. These events are part of the Motorsport Australia Targa Championship, and this week on Garage 41 we'll look at them, and tell you how to enter.
Aaron Noonan is our Famous Face for Famous Insurance, a guy who has commentated most forms of Australian Motorsport for many years. He's also known as the ‘V8 Sleuth' because of his ability to chase up and authenticate old racecars and he's released several books on our motor racing history. Aaron joins us to divulge some of his secrets.
When Holden ceased production in Australia, many wondered what car would replace the Commodore and some thought it may be the Kia Stinger. Carsales' Nadine Armstrong looks at the Stingers latest performance model – the Kia Stinger GT Night and the boys debate as to whether or not they've hit the mark!
When Indian released the FTR, they did it on the back of the company's flat track racing history, and although the thought of throwing around such a big bike on the dirt is something that wouldn't enter most of our minds, that's not the case for ex Nitro Circus rider Matty McFarren. See what he can do with the Indian FTR on Garage 41.
