Episode 159 Spencer Martin - Australian Drivers Champion 1966 & 1967.
I sat down with Spencer Martin at the Australian Motor Heritage Foundation offices at Sydney Motorsports Park to talk about life off the track. Much has been written and recorded about his brief racing career in the 60s and his later historic racing in the 1990s onwards, however we talk more about his other life as a mechanic, businessman and author - as well as connecting it back to his racing career!
