    AUSTRALIAN motor racing legend Peter Brock was killed today when his car left the road and struck a tree during a rally in Western Australia.

    Have autographed Brocky poster in my room: To Pete "Driver" ***, Thanks for all the tips!! Peter Brock. I guess to go off that way he must have got tips from me ;)

    As with Stevo I pray Brocky knew the Lord. Champion driver, and champion bloke. Loved his philosophy "Get out there and give it a red hot go".

    It has been a sad week overall. Someone I loved who was a passionate Aussi was Colin Theile educator and writer. Books included "Storm Boy" which I loved.

    ...and of course Don Chipp who put some nobility in the grubby world of politics.
