Motor racing will never be the same again.
You were the main reason I became Holden-mad.
Farewell on behalf of myself and my family, we are all devastated.
Thanks for the memories, Brocky.

12 years ago, I was packing my bags for our yearly pilgrimage to "The Mountain" to pay homage to our beloved Holdens. I was also 9 months pregnant. My husband & I weren't going to miss it. And as the story goes, I had my first baby at Bathurst. We named him Brock, after our hero! Peter, you made the birth of our son so special, we didn't ask for you to come and congratulate us. You just turned up. As if you didn't have more important things to do, (like winning a race), We were at Bathurst to cheer you on. Thank you for taking the time and making us feel so special. Your kindness will live in our hearts forever.

With deepest sympathy to all who loved him as we did.

Motto, Jenny and Brock & Hollie

Fare well Peter. God speed

Peter,

l remember back years ago to that very special day when l had the opportunity of meeting both you and your then wife at Chadstone Shopping Centre.

You were everything l had ever imagined you to be...kind, caring, down-to-earth, and ohhhh such a funloving adrenalin pumping guy!

Your personality was exceptionally contagious...

Your smile l will always remember!

And oh the memories of days of olde sitting atop of gum trees at Sandown watching you race...

Your soul is now in Heaven and we are left with the memories of what was the Worlds Finest Gentleman and Sportsman!

Im gonna miss you at the starting grid, Peter!

My thoughts are with your family, friends and collegues.

R.I.P. Peter Perfect!

Peter Brock,

You were a true modern day hero to the many thousands of racing fans.
I would like to say goodbye but I still can't believe you've gone.
When I watched you race I would wonder who would come second .
We have lost a true Aussie hero today and I will forever thank you for the smiles that you put on my face with every time you drove past.

To Brockies Family

I am here thinking wow Brock is gone why did it have to happen to him like in my eyes he was the worlds best race car driver but that stupid corner on the Targa west rally well he will always be in our minds to me he is my role model but now that I think about it I might never want to race because I see what can happen I loved Brock so I will always remember him my whole family loved him but now he’s gone on the day he died we toasted to Peter Brock

Thank You

Thomas Watson

Peter Brock you will be severely missed..

To the Brock family,

The Loss of Peter has saddened not only the entire motor racing fraternity but the whole nation.

My brother Bruce and I spent many cherished times with Brock both on and off the track in the 70’s and 80’s and we will always remember the great times we had.

I recall the 1979 Repco rally where we were both part of the team and recorded a 1-2-3 victory

RIP Brock but give it heaps!

We were on our way up to Gidge to meet our hero, and to get you to sign my sons birth certificate. Police cars were overtaking us. We arrived at the park where all the cars were gathering and were informed that you had been in a serious accident but officials wouldn't tell us how you were, we had a gut feeling it was bad.

We later heard on the news that you had passed, what a shame your time was up, we were in shock.

We drove down as far as we could to the accident. We came back the next day to leave you flowers and a little message, hope you like them!!

We were so close yet so far. My husband didn't get to meet his idol and my son missed out on meeting the man he is named after!!

At least you died doing what you loved!!!

Forever a Legend, who followed his dreams, and certainly lived life. Forever living in our dreams!!

Deepest sympathy and love to the Brock family,

Drive On,

Brock, you were always there for your fans and always had time to chat and listen to us. I have met you six times in my life time and my little son has met you also twice and these times I will never forget. When all the other drivers had disappeared you always stayed back and had a chat to us the fans. You were a peoples person and an inspiration to us all. I have many signatures from you, on my car and many other items I have of you as well and they will stay with me and in my family forever. REST IN PEACE MY FRIEND

PETER BROCK

Peter you were my bright eyes
Now you have gone to sleep
I will miss you sadly
Though I know your in god's keep

Cherishing your moments
And your Victorys too,
Peter how I loved
And will miss you,

To the raceway in the sky.

BEV FORREST.

It is with great disbelief and grief that I heard of our awful loss. For a fabulous man that not many knew personally, but all felt like he was a personal friend, we are extremely saddened. Your generous and friendly nature touched thousands (probably millions). Bathurst will never be the same without your presence - as a driver or not. Your racing ability outshone many - you are not just "King of the Mountain" Brocky - "YOU ARE THE MOUNTAIN". I don't think watching the V8's will ever be the same again for me.

My condolences for his partner Julie and his children/grandchildren. My thoughts are with all of you.

Australia has suffered through a terrible week with the loss of two very notable men - Peter Brock (you are and will always be a legend) and Steve Irwin - may you both rest in peace.

Your like will never be seen again. Your openness, warmth and vitality for life should serve as a lesson for us all. I’m going to miss you mate! Thanks for all the great racing, autographs and wise words you shared with your fans over the years…rest gently.
