This is a pre-order item, it is expected to be dispatched in early June.
V8 Sleuth Magazine is a bi-monthly print publication that will unearth interesting and previously untold stories on a wide range of V8-powered and V8-connected cars, teams, drivers, series and more.
In Issue 4, our cover car is the iconic Kmart Racing Team Holden Commodore VY that Greg Murphy piloted to the famed ‘Lap of the Gods’ in the Top 10 Shootout for the 2003 Bathurst 1000.
Along with Murphy sharing his memories of the car and the lap, we also chat with other key figures within the team that debunk some of the myths that have surrounded the astonishing laptime.
We also profile Jim Richards’ Ford Falcon hardtop Sports Sedan; tell the tale of the Ford Performance Racing Falcon that became, in Tim Edwards’ words, a “$400,000 bin job”; and cover the long and winding career of plucky privateer John Faulkner.
This issue also marks the debut for Neil Crompton as a columnist for V8 Sleuth Magazine, while we also look back at the Peter Jackson Dash and spotlight a privateer Group A Commodore that has returned to the track after a near three-decade hibernation.
Led by publisher, editor and V8 Sleuth founder Aaron Noonan and his team of award-winning pro motorsport journalists in Connor O’Brien, Will Dale and Mark Walker, V8 Sleuth Magazine will become a classic collectable magazine issued every second month.
