mum just almost had a heart attack!
WAT IS GOING ON!
:cussing
2 heroes die doing what they both love...
Brockie was known to be a hooner, but still, he was a pro, and was a good man. He been my childhood hero when it came to the v8 super cars, my first
electric race car was a brock commodore, still got it.
RIP
This is tragic

That's f&*%ed but what really scares me, is that when i found out that Stevo died i thought to myself who's next Brocky, no shit and when i heard
the news today i freaked right out, my psychic brain does this everyday.
This is my Volkswagen, there are many like it, but this one is mine. Without me my Volkswagen is useless, without my Volkswagen, I am useless.

Well just keep Me out of Your thoughts :P:P
all I can say, is Brocky did have a long and eventful life...
acheiving just about everything a motor sport personality could want to do..
still sad though... it hasn't sunk in yet...
