A tragic loss indeed.

Vale Peter Brock - may he rest in peace and may his family be supported during this sad time.

I took this 1602 yesterday @ the AHG training facility where the Prologue was being held. I was there as an official but had some time on my hands so I took some pic's.

We will all miss you Brocky!

absolutely terrible, AND I'm a Ford person.
Another one of the greats cut down and gone too early.

Here's hoping the 'Rule of 3' really is a urban myth.

R.I.P to ANOTHER great Aussie

Wonder if this will add to the state road toll given the road was closed off for the event..

R.I.P Brocky you will be greatly missed I dont know what else to say as Im have only just found out as I have been working all day. Not one but 2 aussie icons dieing in the same week.; I am saddened to hear of both deaths. Although being a Holden Boy all my life the Brockie death hits me the most.

I quite enjoyed the tribute to Brock on Channel 7 last night - to see his family and friends and all his achievements in life. The one part that hit me the most though was Craig Lowndes who said exactly what many, many people thought and that was he wanted to grow up to be exactly like him as he was his idol. That really broke me.... Its a shame that incidences like these make you realise what the priorities in life are. At least he went doing what he loved...
