One great aussie after other, first Steve Irwin now Peter Brock - I don't know if people outside of Australia will know of him.. but yea.. :(
Racing driver Peter Brock has died in a racing accident in Western Australia, the WA Police Major Crash Squad has confirmed.
The nine-times Bathurst 1000 winner was taking part in the Targa rally event in WA and involved one car, which crashed into a tree.
Brock, 61, was driving a 5.7 litre Chevrolet V8 Daytona sports car in the Targa race.
The 1150kg car was built as a modern interpretation of the 1965 Shelby Daytona, which dominated the World Sports Car Championship that year.
Brock's co-driver was to be Mick Hone, a Melbourne motorcycle dealer who was team manager for the Works Suzuki team in 2000.
