just heard that Peter Brock has been killed in a racing accident.

it's a sad day for motorsports :( from all reports he was also a good guy that was happy doing what he loved. who always had time for others and his fans.

That's why I've never heard of him then.

Unless he guested on Top Gear, Dr Who or Motorsport on Sunday I'm unlikely know him.

Thanks Duncan.

Simon, nice pics. Those buggers make doubly sure that you are on the other side of the tree :( that is unless they are pissed enough not to care. One sure way to find out is if they are making such a racket ;-)a

Well looks the same, anyone notice that he also didn't sell the 5D? The feedback shows the sale was never completed, suspicious.

Congrats Simon on picking up the teleconverter. I hope it can give you great drifting results in a couple of weeks. :)
