We (Rick and I) were on our way to a wedding when we heard.  It was discussed pretty much all night.


One of the things we were talking about was how many true offroad (IE not safari/rally) events he had done.


I know he did finke in a CAT sponsored commodore in the late nineties/early naughties, and think he may have run Milbrodale at some stage???  Anyone got more info?

I would just like to share my off road memories of the great man. It was at the stadium event at Calder. Brock was driving a Manns stadium truck. During a break in the "real" off road vehicles they had the trike & oddysey club on the track. I was in the Manns tent watching Peter mix with the many fans when a loud cheer came from the crowd. We all rushed out to see what was happening. The oddysey guys were going nuts. One had rolled & there was carnage all round. I remember looking across at the great man, he had eyes as wide as a joyfull schoolboy & a grin to match. I thought at the time look at this guy, he has achieved so much in motorsport , yet he is just like the rest of us, a petrol head at heart. Peter Pan got his wish. Forever young.
