Garth Tander

So I knew him quite well, but getting that close to him was really interesting.

I reckon I learned as much in those couple of years as a co-driver with Shane as I did for a lot of my full-time career.

So I learned a lot from Shane.

How he managed the tyre, his ability, how he did it and how he went about it.

And also his ability to think when he's driving.

So you think about the racing brain as a computer.

Most drivers use about 80% of their processing power to drive, actually just driving the race car as fast as it'll go.

And then you've got about 20% left over to think about strategy and bits and pieces and whatever you might have.

What else?

Peripheral stuff.

I reckon Shane uses about 30% of his CPU to drive the race car fast.

So he's got this so much more capability to think about all this other stuff that's going on.

So what can we do with strategy?

How can I drive the car differently?

What can I do with anti-roll bars?

You know, you've all seen that vision of Shane on the anti-roll bars, how he changes the bars 27 times a lap and all the rest of it.

His capacity to think on the run, I think, is far greater than anyone I've ever seen.

Yeah, we had Will's engineer, Eddie the... Oh, yeah, I know what you mean.

Yeah.

I was with him in 1922 as well.
