We sit down with Dylan Bamford to talk about what “elbows up” really looks like when the racing is tight and the stakes are a state title. We swap stories from Alice Springs, speedway pits, and title weekends where preparation, mateship, and a bit of luck decide what you take home.
• Dylan’s karting history and the father-son approach to racing with purpose
• What “elbows up” means on track and where the line sits
• Favourite tracks and corners, plus why Alice Springs races so well
• Speedway crossover and how the pits culture carries across classes
• Career highlights, horror weekends, and what different title formats reward
• Race receivers in karting, safety benefits, distraction risks, and steward rules
• The real cost of racing, tyres, and why supporting volunteers matters
• Title prep must-haves, travelling smart, and leaning on crew networks
• Switching to the Rival chassis and balancing racing with family life
• Reviewing the NT title nominations and calling smokies across the classes
• Transponders, kart numbers, and how rules could evolve with technology
• How to watch a race meeting to learn starts, lines, and changing surfaces
People that are listening in, don't be afraid to comment on the post and put your ideas forward because we do have this technology, which should mean that we don't have to be so strict
