Q:
For those who dont know, Peter Brock, a true aussie hero died today in a rally accident in W.A.
He will be missed by millions of Australians.
Peter Brock was someone alot of kids looked up to, I have been speaking to workshops all around Australia, and everyone from the juniors to the owners are feeling it.
