Legacy of a Rally Legend: Shekhar Mehta Remembered at Duncombe Park

I visit Duncombe Park, the venue for the Lombard Rally Festival. I had the pleasure of interviewing three distinguished guests, the first being Tim Nash, the man behind the festival. Tim will be sharing with us the history of the festival, the challenges he faced in organizing it, and his vision for the future. I will also chat with Yvonne and Vijay, the wife and son of Safari Rally legend Shekha Metha. They will be sharing their personal stories and memories of Shekhar, as well as their thoughts on the current state of the rally. Join us as we explore the Lombard Rally Festival and its history on this Back Seat Driver Podcast episode.
