my uncle forwarded this to me from another forum. have a read.
"This was sent to me by a friend for posting on the forum and can be posted to any motoring enthusiast's forum.
Ok I know Brocky was best known for his efforts in Holden's, But without a competitor for the Ford's we may not even have V8 supercars.
Brock IS a legend, and his death was a sad loss not only to his friends and family, but also to his supporters and to the community in general. Last year after Peter Brock's passing i was heavily involved in organising a memorial cruise in his honour, i hope that 1 year on, on the anniversary of his passing that again we may cruise in the name of a legend.
This cruise is organise through several clubs of all manufacturing background, and will run as posted
SATURDAY 8/9/07
Final meeting point is LITHGOW showgrounds 10am
George Coates ave Lithgow
it is 1 street before the Macca's, goes under the railway line.
leave 10.30am, heading to Mt. Panorama, Bathurst.
Will be talking to the local Authorities hoping to get some assistance in traffic control. Also will be inviting the media along as per last year.
When we arrive at Mt. Panorama, we are proposing to line the grid for 1 minutes silence, before completeing 1 full lap and a return to the top of the mountain. When we reach Brock's Skyline we will park and lay flowers on the stones spelling Mount Panorama, and sign the walls with our best wishes.
Please post this cruise on whichever site you feel may be interested in joining us, clubs will be incouraged to bring along bbq's or whatever they wish for a lunch at the top of the mountain.
EVERYONE will be asked to bring a small bunch of flowers and to fly a black ribbon on there arial (or elsewhere that it suits).
Final note: Peter Brock was a continous supporter for road safety, please don't drive in any manner that may be seen as offensive, ALL sitings if any will be reported to the police.
R.I.P. Peter Brock! The Legend Lives ON!
Sorry one final note, if you have something NEGATIVE to say about this cruise or about Brocky, do youself a favour and keep it to yourself.
Thank You"
