V8SP: Jack Perkins (Part 1)

This week we’re talking to Jack Perkins on the V8 Sleuth Podcast powered by Repco. In Part 1, Jack talks about growing up around the sport and becoming a racer himself – including securing HSV sponsorship for a Ford-backed karting competition! – his early years in Supercars and his very short Bathurst 1000 debut in 2006, plus his type 1 diabetes diagnosis, how he initially hid it and how he now manages it while racing.
