  • Atleast he died what he loved doin. If only he was driving a holden we wouldnt be in this mess

  • I used to be in SCCA racing. I remember a friend (Jim) of mine stopped racing after his wife begged him to stop. We just had another friend (Mark) killed at a track in California. 1 month later Jim sold his race car to please his wife as she was 7 months pregnat. On a weekend the rest of us was at another race, Jiim was on his way home after delivering the car to the new owner when he was hit by a trucker who fell asleep at the wheel. JIm was killed instantly.

    Die doing what you Love.Like Pete

  • FUCKEN CHEAT MASSIVE FUCKEN CHEAT...COULDN'T CHEAT DEATH!!!...BWAAAHAAHAAHAAHAAHA­A

  • One of my close friends was talking to him that very day at the race.... Such a loss :(

    Australia loses a motorsport legend

  • Guess he should have called in sick...

  • Let's see the corps under that blu tarp, it's a fun sport after all!

  • "killed himself"??did Simoncelli too?Senna?he died in a very high risk sport doing what he lived,breathed and shat!unfortunately,because he ran a tight busy schedule,he didn't get time to test the car on the track before the weekend of racing started.I could only imagine,this wouldn't have deterred him with the total confidence he had in his own driving ability.it was an unfortunate accident and "should have,could have,would have" is irrelevant.......

  • It appears to be clear how peter was killed not through speed or bad roads but through age combined with years of sucking down on car emissions. List to some of peter final interviews when asked how his race went he he would explain how the weekend started and take forever to answer the question. If Peter had of retired from racing when he said he would and kept on racing then he would still be alive. he KILLED HIMSELF....

  • to the wankers bagg'n the legend...maybe your brothers and selves with your apparent experiences with him are the pricks and arseholes?the guy is and absolute motor racing legend and outside of the sport,did mass amounts fro the Aboriginal communities in the territory and various other charities....I wish nothing but the worst for those of you laying crap on a dead man.very big of you,now go rub 1 out for your awesome achievements before getting back to trolling....dicks!

  • To have his passing occur in a Daytona Coupe which he penned and had so much soul in is chilling

  • @luckyshoeshine the car was penned by pete brock the american car designer, not peter brock. i thought they were the same guy too till i looked it up. still pretty weird though

  • No roll cage in a race car? Bummer.

  • @killersushi99 It had a roll cage and was cut away to get him out

  • @Count0Reilly Oh I see. Its hard to see in the pics.

  • @killersushi99

    Yeah i know thank you C.A.M.S for keeping the sport safe!

  • @killersushi99

    u hit a tree side impact at that speed, roll cage aint gonna save ya

  • @bnz500 Your right mate, my brother worked for a tyre fitting company which peter brock used to supply and fit tyres/ wheels for his every day cars and occasionally race cars. My brother had stacked a big bunch of tyres neatly, took him about half an hour to do and Brock visited and tore down the stack looking for a set of tyres he wanted, my brother confronted him about it and apparently he was extremely rude. He'd been rude to employees in that store on other occasions as well, what a prick.

  • @trezza181 I was in Australian motor sport for 25 years and thats was him just a arse hole

  • I am Ford fan, but to see Brock killed was terrible for AUSTRALIAN racing..

  • i remember seeing his car on the back of the tow truck covered up on my way down from gidge tragic loss and the first time i had seem my father cry from losing his idol

  • @bam153 I'm a Ford fan and I was moved by the loss

  • What car is that in the accident? It seems he missed a gear and lost maybe 2 seconds out of the driving line and that must have been the cause of the accident...the car went out of the road, maybe he also over used the brakes, went straight to the tree and broke in two killing him. In a big audi he would be alive, i know they handle that kind of accident. In a Porsche 911 he would never miss a gear. RIP

  • @1971ratrace It was one leg in a rally. The car hit gravel on a bend. Peter Brock was the top race driver in Australia for 20 years. A audi is to under powered for what he was doing. The car was made from the frame up for racing with a full roll cage the crash was just a freak accident

  • @Count0Reilly I can not see any of the roll cage , you would expect to see side impact bars, full roll-bar with triangulation cross frame and roof frame. was the cage cut away ?? thanks Tom

  • @tomgt007 The car had to be cut up to get them out Peter Brock was killed the nav was in a bad way and spent a long time in the ICU

    The car was to FIA standards

  • @1971ratrace

    it looks like a Daytona coupe....sad

  • OLD PEOPLE SHOULD TAKE THE BUS I THINK

  • I know nothing about American motor racing, but I am a massive Formula 1 and motorsport fan from England.... You guys dont seem to know anything outside America but I have to say I am totally stunned by some of the pathetic, sad and frankly disrespectful comments about Peter Brock. I dont have to name names, but you know who you are and I hope you can live with yourself because some of these comments are unbelievable.....RIP.

  • @mattatdaw To give an idea of how great Peter Brock was, he won the annual Bathurst 1000km touring car race ten times, the touring car championship 3 times (actually that`s a rough guess), won the Bathurst 24 Hour Endurance Race & was also a handy rally driver as well - winning the Repco Round Australia 1979 rally in a Commodore. He was called "Peter Perfect" due to his Bathurst Victories. Thus I thank you for telling off the people making silly comments. I`m a Ford fan but admired "Brocky".

  • @mattatdaw australian*

  • @mattatdaw if you know nothing about American motor racing, your statement is hypocritical at best. Yes, we have a contingent of individuals who only watch Nascar, but in the UK you have a contingent of indviduals who look/dress/act like Ali G. So what? I'm American, and I've known Pete Brock since the Mobil1 commericials in the early 90s. "Oiiimm Petah Brahk, and oi chooze Mohbill wahn." Not everyone from the worlds last super power is a retard, just the ones you Youtube.

  • such an amazing man getting killed by a tree FUCK U TREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @joshua12345a GOLD!!!...CHEATING CUNT COULDN'T CHEAT DEATH!!!

  • @nunobits12 i hope u die a long painful death u gay Cunt

  • @nunobits12 Are you really that starved for attention you have to seek it by leaving comments (via a sock account) like that ,you need to take a long hard look at yourself and then ask yourself why is my personal life that bad that i have to leave destructive comments simply to gain attention so i can fell better about my station in life ,,,you really are a peice of shit

  • what is a sock account, is that a rude term because i do NOT find that funny

  • @BRKRIP Excuse me, thats offensive to me mate, Thats my Last Name your using there. Please refrain from it. Thank You

  • Not the Peter Brock that designed the Coupe tho. This guy seams like he had alot of Fans. R.I.P.

  • at 1:10 is the tread on the front tyre facing backwards or is it correct ?

  • @RollsRoyce129

    This car is made by Superformance, not Factory Five Racing. Peter Brock helped design this version of the Daytona Coupe for Superformance. FFR makes their own version. Replica of one of the coolest cars ever. RIP Peter Brock

  • Yev gotta watch out for those trees, they're sneaky bastards.

  • @Hornet0biker like your mom

  • @vincart2010 pure literary genius from a Holden loving Peter Cock worshipping wet fart! Do you best the piss out of your wife like your late hero?

  • you know when they loaded the car on a roll back the motor was taken and anther raly car team bought it and they crashed as well and killed that drivr but also destryed the engine

  • R.I.P. LEGEND.

  • :'(

  • While it's sad that one of Australia's best race car drivers died, at least he died doing what he did best. Isn't that how everyone should leave the world? 

  • died doing what he does best

  • i'm sorry but for a racing car, its got really shit protection.

  • RIP brocky anyone agree?

  • Its a Factory Five Type 65 Coupe, and it's a tube frame so a roll cage is basically already built in.

  • Its a Factory Five Type 65 Coupe, and it's a tube frame so a roll cage is already somewhat built in.

  • Bev ... i bet your happy now

  • @ieatpeas24 I know you injest peas but do you really think its such a great idea to do the same thing with your neighbors cats wet shit?

  • SO SAD  R.I.P PETER

  • R.I.P Brocky!U was one of The Greatest in the history of Australian motorsports!!But U went away,doing what U love most!!

  • AHHAAHAHA

  • No music needed. A great man the true king of the mountian and of all Australian motorsport. I was lucky enough to meet him and he was one of the nicest guys you could ever meet. RIP Peter Brock the whole of Australian Motorsport is still mourning your death. RIP.

  • No offense, but Brocky looked a hundred in the shade...his reflexes may not have been upto his reputation at the time of the crash. That said, i can only hope when my time comes i go out in a similar blaze of glory.

  • RIP Brocky.

  • the biggest mistake he made was stepping out of a holden and getting into that piece of junk. rest in peace brocky.

  • @bikerbro4life It wasn't a piece of junk until it was crashed. If Brock had thought that Daytona replica was a piece of junk he would not have been in it in the first place.

  • @Porr84 maybe he should have put a roll cage in it

  • R.I.P M8 WE WILL MISS YOU

  • as far as i know....joshklat.... i say one of contributing factors is that he was tired from a long flight from germany to Tasmania and when ur tired ur not as ALERT as u would normally be.... criticizing manufacture isn't why he die it was HUMAN ERROR AND FATIGIUE

  • One of the finest racing drivers I've ever seen - not just an advert for Aussie grit but quite simply one of the best racers of his generation.

    Brockie is missed not just in Oz, but anywhere where good racing is discussed.

  • One of the last guys to switch from the old 5 stud wheels to 1 center nut in bathurst and the man still cleaned up.

  • Creeps. Let's see how you handle death. Achieve more than a post on here? Fuckwits.

  • King of the hill Mr Peter Brock

  • @joshklat - Ain't you a dick face... I wish you stod up against the tree he hit..

  • @DK101GT  lol thank you for comment reply

  • What do Peter Brock and Steve Irwin have in common? Neither could handle a fish tail!! Probably all the time he spent in those shit holdens contributed - always having to think about understeer and forgetting about oversteer due to a lack of power!

  • @joshklat no sympathy typical fken ford fan

  • Oh, my god..... 

  • R.I.P. Peter Brock. You will be missed by many, and forgotten by none.

  • im named after him

    RIP Brock.

  • a true legend

  • Don't worry the kids who fight on these videos usually end up suiciding in a corner of their house because their spoiled asses didn't get exactly what they wanted from their parents. RIP PB

  • 2 legends in 1 week :( R.I.P Peter Brock. R.I.P Steve Irwin. 

  • @wheeman999 I didn't realize Steve Irwin died!!! Do u mean the guy who pokes snakes with a stick and wrestles crocodiles??? Whay and he died in this crash with Peter Brock!!! Thats really sad loosin 2 people like that. Its almost like when Buddy Hollie, Big Poppa & Richie Valens died in that plane crash. Where were Peter Brock and Steve Irwin driving to??? I never new they knew each other, but they must have been good fiends!!! RIP to them both!!!

  • @RasOrville

    No no, Peter brock died in the crash just after this race, Steve irwin died 1 week later shooting a new movie about sting rays, sadly, the ray stung him in the heart. He pulled the spur out and died about a minute later. this all happend about 4 years ago. it was huge on the news. and yes the guy that pokes snakes and wrestles crocodiles.

  • @wheeman999 Think I better look at the news more often!!! I can't believe he'd get killed by a stingray!!! I mean really they are quite docile creatures. I would understand if it was a croc attack coz he was such a fearless man and he used to play with fire like that but a stingray? He was such an animal lover. Thats really sad!!!

    May they both rest in peace in eternal life!!!

  • damn trees!!

  • Was the co-pilot also killed?

  • @mesa401

    No. He wasn't. The co-driver made alot of different stories onto what happend and whether Peter was killed instantly or not. The first story he come out with was along the lines ' after the accident, Peter was holding my hand saying " it hurts, It hurts " and then nothing. he just closed his eyes and nothing ' But later on. The story changed to ' when I come to, Peter was dead already, it was painless and quick. ' I for one believe the first story.

    R.I.P Peter Brock. Forever missed.

  • ford or holden, no matter, just a true legend. cheers pete

  • I am just asking, is there any actual video of him crashing into the tree and not just pictures?

  • r.i.p peter brock from the brits

  • i dont know this man but R I P anyway

  • wasn't a household name!!! WTF!! he was/is a legend!

  • @LorenWish it depends on where you live whether or not he was a household name

  • atleast he died doin what he loved

  • He died 3 years before Micheal Jackson!

  • A shmae he wasn't a household name worldwide until he died. RIP.

  • still the king

  • one word, 'legend'

  • That little car reminds me of the Ford RS200. Very quick but unstable. RIP to all who dare to drive them

  • REST IN PEACE

  • Ya trees, trees will do it.

  • There's supposed to be footage of this crash...Where Is It?

  • If Brocky had of listened all those years ago he would not have been as great as he was!! RIP

  • oh wel nem mind died doin wat he loves cldnt imagine a btter way 2 go

  • brocky was the man missin u at the mountain every year, and u smart lil faggots show respect or i will fukin murder you.

  • @volatilefists  fuk up

  • you should cut down on your sugar intake

  • @volatilefists  rito fuckin hero!!

  • that car hade 2 much power for him they tolled him not to tack her out he dident lisern

  • Hey Fuck Nuts... this is a tribute for Peter Brock go post your ramblings elsewhere.

  • Comment removed

  • i might add.. i dont see a roll cage... how could C.A.M.S allow such a thing???

  • Of cause it had a roll cage do you really think brock would jump in a race with know cage??? They cut it away to get him and the passenger out..

  • have a close look..... NO ROLL CAGE>>> NO MOUNTINGS OR ANYTHING CUT

  • it has 1 roll bar incase of a rollover but no suppourt around the A pillar

  • @SgtRaaaa Cut it away to get him out

  • It is an honorable death. He died doing what he loves. Most of you will die in feces not knowing your own name...

  • PLEASE put a filter on this comment page to stop stupid comments coming through. brock was a legend and a great man one of the nicest ppl ive ever met. RIP peter 9 times king of the mountain.. king of all time

  • wanker

  • " every time" it's two words. Makes me smile every time I get to correct the grammar and spelling of a dumbass.. ;-} One day your kind will evolve and catch up to the rest of us.

  • @mesa401 So.... You are calling me a dumbass because I forget to separate "every" and "time" sometimes?

    Nah, jk. xD

  • Oh your nice!!

    You my friend are a big fat racist!!!

  • hay steigerfreak280 BROK was a KIWI LOL

  • Died doing what he obviously loved... RIP

  • this is a tribute to an australian legend not a place for arguing

  • Seriously, what does drunk driving and dieing while not drunk have to do at all with each other? I don't see any poetic justice in it at all. If anything it should say "Hey, this can happen while not intoxicated so don't drink and drive."

  • who the fuck do you think you are you cunt tanriovert. brocky was and will always be a legend you worthless peice of shit. he died doing what he loved. so how about you shut that hole on your face called a mouth and pull your fucking head in cunt. no one wants to hear your shit

  • Campaigning against drunk driving is the wrong message? right.

  • is that-is that blood????

    Brock was a legend- rip

  • one of the few genuine gentleman of motorsport a designer builder and driver always approachable this man will be remembered long after the f1 drivers of today whos love of money and publicity is their aim ROY ROBERTSON SCOTLAND

  • Brock you will never be forgotten

    RIP

  • I lived in Aussie for a couple of years when I was a kid. Every time ABC would have a race on, he was kicking EVERYONE'S asses. He was a hell of a driver. R.I.P. Peter.

  • I didn't even know he was an Aussie until I heard about this crash. Of course, having lived in America, I never did know much about him. That was one very bad week for Australia, as Brock's death occurred three days after Steve Irwin was killed by that stingray. Talk about a 1-2 punch.

  • aye rip to both of em

  • RIP Brocky, you are missed you Legend.
