Rusty's Garage

That first ride on a 500cc Grand Prix bike - Kevin Magee remembers it in visceral detail.
Racing in Japan and the mark he made there on the way to what we now know as MotoGP.
Racing for Kenny Robert’s Yamaha including a podium in Portugal. Finally adding his name to that prestigious list of Grand Prix winners on a memorable day in Spain. A frightening cool down lap crash in the late 80’s and the media mistakenly reporting his death at Laguna Seca! He would come back to win races in Superbikes but how tough it was to deal with the premature end of his GP career.
And the remarkable story of helping a blind rider break a world record.This conversation leaves you in no doubt of Magee’s talent but like so many in this brutal sport the tradjectory can change suddenly. Hold on for an incredible ride.

We’re joined by former Fox Motorsport bike racing expert Kevin Magee for this fascinating two-parter.
Growing up in country Victoria and showing fearless talent on a bike to learning what made machines really fire and how to get the best out of them. Early racing opportunities and juggling his passion with work including the story of finishing one job at lunch and starting another that afternoon!
You’ll be blown away by the detail of his memory around some aspects of his racing career and the bikes he competed on. Getting his circuit racing break and just how good he was straight away.
Little wonder ‘Magoo’ became known as the ‘Horsham Hurricane’ as climbed the ladder taking aim at the Swan Series, the 6-hour and ultimately racing on the world stage.

The sportscar superstar and former F1 driver had a busy GP week in Oz including a function with Rusty at Lindsay Fox’s classic car museum in Melbourne.

Recorded with the assistance of the Audi’s F1 team’s partner BP the pair spoke on stage about all sorts of things.

Reuniting with the ‘Croc’ car and getting to drive the Race of a Thousand Years winner around some iconic parts of Victoria.

What his work as the Director of Audi’s Driver Development Program entails.

How long they have had Freddie Slater (who you can find in our library at last month’s New Zealand Grand Prix) in their sights for.

The serious talent they are supporting in F1 Academy and a special memory he has of the great Ayrton Senna.

As well as insights on the magnitude of Audi’s F1 project and the quiet determination to conquer the very pinnacle of the sport just like they did in World Rally in the 80’s, in Sportscar Racing and more.\

It’s like you’re in the crowd at the function with a cool treat, surrounded by some amazing cars and listening in on an engaging chat with a legend.

We’ve built a Feature library that is mainly 1-on-1 convos but we’re breaking the mould with this one….and it was so worth it.

Rusty shoots the breeze with ‘Bieber’ and ‘Camo’ who are reveling in the step forward that BRT has taken in Supercars this year.

How motor racing started for each of them? The race cars in the Cameron family garage and has Aaron had a steer of them?

DJ’ing and why it’s an escape for Jimmy and is there any correlations to his day job.
There’s a heart warming family story Aaron shares too that is truly inspiring.

What it was like at Garry Roger’s Motorsport for both of them and the hard yards they did in that period of their careers.

Enjoy being part of this ripper round table chat and get to know this likeable pair a little better.

The grounded approach the team is taking that comes right from the top.

How the relentless off-season work at BRT has filled them with confidence and a determination by the drivers to repay the faith as they say.

Jimmy is making the most of his new surroundings and we look back on his Bathurst 2025 podium with the benefit of a bit of time to process it.

A turning point for Aaron at Adelaide last year and how he rose to the occasion.

Plus the wave of new supporters (all in BRT merch) that love the underdog story.

And ‘Flying High’….Sky Diving indoors. Are either of them ready for a cameo in the next Point Break movie?

This convo flies by. It’s like the three of them are at a BBQ and you’re within earshot. Enjoy.
