Hi all
Whoosha and I are heading to Sandown tomorrow for Brocky's memorial. We were wondering who else is going and maybe catch up with fellow members while we're there. Starts at 2pm. Gates open at 12pm. Krissy ![]()

I am thinking there could be a small crowd. He really was, in the later years ,no one to look at with admiration.
Absolutely everyone I have talked to, including friends young and old think he isnt really a loss in the way someone like Steve Irwin was. I wouldnt bother going myself... |

sounds like a good crowd turned up, it would have been good to see the historic cars there circulating too.

Lots of people went which was good.
Many people who know nothing about cars or motorsport would have gone for the legend, not for the man. Peter Brock to us as the family man will be forgotten. But the legend will always live on. Glad to hear it all went well. And the new trophy being made for the winner of Panorama is fitting to Brock's memory and his dominance on the track spanning 3 decades. |

Dont forget they were team mates together at one stage, racing in Europe etc.... And they had great respect for eachother when racing as rivals, never swapping paint. It was good clean racing. |

maybe people think its cool to say silly stuff because this is a Ford forum, and he mainly was racing in a Holden ?
Its not the case, PB was an Aussie legend and most Ford or Holden fans respect that. If i lived down that way i woulda gone along to pay my respects as a racing fan. Nice pics Unruly !

I would have loved to have gone but couldn't make it, looks like a fitting tribute to the great man, seeing Moffet in tears on the news really showed how much respect there was between them evan with there strong rivalry on the track.
