Peter Brock: How Good is This!

by Wayne Webster

Brock's friend and co-driver Wayne Webster gives an honest account of a man with unmatched intuition in the car, a deep affection for his fans, and a less than perfect - but very human - record in his personal relationships. His death during a 2006 rally shocked the community and brought his contributions into relief.

Brock's story is told through insightful interviews with friends, family and business associates, and includes details of his Bathurst victories; the 'Energy Polariser' and his split with Holden; his radical change of lifestyle; his relationship and split with Bev; and the changes in the racing industry.

[J Craig McKay · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book had the potential for 4 or even 5 stars, but the absence of simple things such as labeling the many photos with relevant info (year, location, race, car model etc) and linking pictures with the text subject really let it down. A missed opportunity.

Great insight into the man Brock was and the people around him. New stories are told. RIP
