Evening With A Legend: Jim Busby
Tuesday Jul 09, 2024
Tuesday Jul 09, 2024
Evening With A Legend is a series of presentations exclusive to Legends of the famous 24 Hours of Le Mans giving us an opportunity to bring a piece of Le Mans to you. By sharing stories and highlights of the big event, you get a chance to become part of the Legend of Le Mans with guests from different eras of over 100 years of racing.
In 1978, Jim Busby debut in the Le Mans 24H in a Porsche 935 from Kremer Racing, and finished in 6th position overall. His enduring association with BFGoodrich began with the 1982 Le Mans 24H when his Porsche 924 Carrera GTR won the GT class using BFG's road-specification tires; and they remain his sponsors and tire suppliers during his 1984 return to Le Mans with a Group C2 Lola-Mazda. In subsequent seasons he concentrated on managing the team, and perhaps his finest victory came in the 1989 Daytona 24H when John Andretti, Bob Wollek and Derek Bell shared the win in the Miller High Life Porsche 962. Jim sold his team in 1990, and move on to other projects and racing. Busby himself may not admit it, but he is regarded as one of the worlds best Porsche specialists from the 1970s and 80s. Jim now spends his time in Newport Beach, California with his wife.
This Evening With A Legend was hosted by David Spitzer from the ACO USA.

For this particular Retro Test Drive, They say, "never drive your heroes" ... but when someone approaches you and says "I need you to run an errand for me, and please take my car" - then hands you an odd looking set of keys which unlocks a gateway to the past, its really hard to say no.

Can you imagine a world where "ladies and gentlemen ... start your engines" doesn't have the same meaning as it used to? Many of our guests when asked the Pit Stop question, "What would be different once the evolution has taken hold?" Their overwhelming consensus is the lack of sound, which begs the question: What if there was no sound in racing?
In this special episode of Break Fix, we take you, our loyal listener, on an audio journey through an entire race weekend at Road Atlanta and explore all the different ways that sound influences the race experience.
