Peter Brock - one year on
I would like to see either written tributes or video tributes posted here in memory of his life.
Thanks Pete. |

And people just shook their heads, bit their lips and wondered who would be second". RIP Peter Brock. 1945-2006

One of my happiest memories of Brock was in 2004 when he raced the then GRM driver Cam McConvilie and HRT team boss Mark Skaife. Brock in his '79 HDT XU1 Torana, McConvilie in a 2004 VZ Commodore and Skaife in his VY Commodore. Being there live to see the action and hearing the HDT Torrie at full blast sounded like angels singing. RIP Brocky, hope you and Mark Porter are having a blast in heaven.

Well last time I was in the precence of Peter was sadly and a friends funeral and I never thought that that would be the last time I would see and here him. It is funny that sometime you dont get to grab full grasp of the moment in front of your eyes till later. When it is to late.

No, Hepatic, it really doesn't seem like a year does it.

VS III v8 Ute "Peter Brock Tribute"
As a Signmaker I thought the best way I could honour Peter Brock's memory was to create this tribute. This particular one has been modified to honour the 20th Anniversary of Brock's 1987 Bathurst 1000 win.
Peter was an inspiration to me and I hope you all appreciate my tribute. http://forum.streetcommodores.com.au....php?t=8512155 ps. You will need to become a member to view the pics, but I think its worth it. |
