The TCR Australia Champion is a great case study in backing yourself even when the odds seem against you. Josh Buchan candidly shares his humble upbringing, the connection to cars that inspired him as a young bloke and how he literally took a punt to make it to the next kart race meeting.

He discusses the phone calls he made and the lessons he learned outside the car to try and open doors to Formula Ford and Formula 3 on the pathway. Then there’s the epic race machines he’s driven at David Dicker’s impressive facility on the South Island of New Zealand before Josh had the chance to tear up Sydney Motorsport Park for Rodin Cars in the World Time Attack Challenge.

Even if you don’t know Josh you’ll be gripped by his story and his story telling. No doubt we’ll be hearing more of him in the years to come.
