On this episode of RallySport Magazine's DustTrails Podcast, we head to Tasmania to speak to Les Walkden, one of the real unsung heroes in Australian rallying.
Les is a guy who's more known behind the scenes than behind the steering wheel, but that certainly doesn't lessen the impact that he's had on the sport.
A member of the Australian Rally Hall of Fame, Les, who's now 77, began his rallying in the 1970s, winning two Tasmanian Rally Championships before moving into a team manager role in 1993.
He's nurtured and guided drivers like Ed Odynski, Michael Guest, Juha Kangas, Simon Evans, and Brendan Reeves, while in recent years, ran the Subaru factory rally team where Molly Taylor took victory in the 2016 Australian Rally Championship.
Today, he still has his finger on the pulse, running Bodie Reading in the ARC, with a keen eye on the future.
Peter Whitten caught up with Les in Launceston to go over some of the
highlights of a remarkable career that has so far spanned over 35 years.
