RIP Peter Brock 1945-2006.
You were, and always will be, the best.

Members of various ACT Holden Clubs have placed memorial stickers on their Holden windscreens which simply read "RIP Peter Brock 1945-2006". These stickers are available from StreetRides ACT for $10 each to with all proceeds going to the Peter Brock Foundation.

Me to, Mark....and just like half the country, I sat there glued to the screen.

But how fitting was it that his final ride was in a HOLDEN hearse dressed with BROCKY plates, and followed by a convoy of new VE commodore's.

Recent week-long vintage caravan trip from the deep south west of WA to Kalbarri north of Geraldton and return, culminated with my visit to "the site" to pay my respects to the late and great Peter Brock. I'm sure he is in Holden Heaven discussing the finer points of Holdens with Trev Roberts.  

RIP Brocky

Ask me about microwaving cats for fun or profit.

Last time I saw PB was in '03 at the Summernats.
He was talking to fans and signing stuff.

Just got back from the XU1 club meeting and had the opportunity to watch a DVD of Peter Brock's last speech.

It was just mind blowing to know that less that 14 hours later he would be dead.

What was great to see was his amazing zest for life  - anyone who says he was tired from the trip to England hasn't seen this footage. He is bubbly and informative as always, an amazing guy and an impossible loss for Australia and its traditional ways.

RIP PB.  Cry
