My World View – All Eyes Remain On China

My World View – All Eyes Remain On China

I have spent a lot of time travelling overseas this year and from an economic viewpoint all eyes are firmly on China.It is at the centre of all conversations about the global economic outlook and whether it can continue its remarkable growth in manufacturing and exports.My personal view, whether it is right or wrong but I am happy to put it out there, is that China is going through the correction it had to have.The Chinese Government is transitioning their economy, and their huge population of 1.4 billion people, to more sustainable long-term growth.My view is they will manage and…

Broncos, baby!!!

Broncos, baby!!!

’ve always been a Storm and Broncos fan but, before you judge me, Broncos are definitely my number one baby. The Broncos have had a fun run leading up to this; sitting at that sweet 7th spot on the ladder. The last couple of games have been solid, notably their Rabbitohs and Roosters ones. This Sunday is the final game before the Telstra Premiership finals series. The last chance they get to pull their socks up – hopefully they can produce the goods! Go Broncos!!! I’ll see you there!

Trip Review – Margaret River

Trip Review – Margaret River

I had long desired to visit Margaret River and when I did go a couple of months back it did not disappoint. My wife and I and some friends of ours stayed at Cape Lodge which was wonderful accommodation and had sensational settings. I thoroughly recommend going on the wine tour with Sean Blocksidge from The Margaret River Discovery Co., he is a great bloke and has a large range of knowledge about the area. We visited three great wineries; the boutique Edwards Estate winery, Cape Mentelle and Fraser Gallop. Lunch at Cape Mentelle which is owned by Louis Vuitton,…

Trip Review – Auckland

Trip Review – Auckland

I spent last weekend in New Zealand with my friend, seven time World of Outlaws Sprintcar Champion, Donny Schatz. He was racing at Western Springs Speedway which is based in the heart of Auckland. There was a large crowd and the facilities were fantastic. Auckland keeps surprising me with how modern and clean the city is. It is definitely a city which is well worth a visit.

About Todd

About Todd

Versatile is an often over-used term in auto racing but in the case of Queensland jack-of-all-trades Todd Wanless it’s an appropriate description. Whether it’s bitumen or dirt, Wanless loves it all. If it’s got wheels, he’ll let it loose on a variety of different surfaces. That racing passion has been bred into him at an early age; his Dad Ron was a former two-time Australian Speedcar Champion and young Todd has modeled his aggressive racing nature on that legend his father created over three decades ago. These days living in Rochedale in Queensland, Wanless is a committed family man (he…
