He was driving with Mick Hone in a Daytona Coupe when he hit a tree in the Targa West rally.

Very sad newsabout Brocky, wonder how the other guy faired?
Hope the media doesn't blow this up and put a black mark on ICV's.

I think the irony here is that the American Peter Brock was one of the designers of the original Daytona in the 60's wasn't he?

For those overseas, this is not Pete Brock, designer of the Daytona Coupe, but Peter Brock, "King of the Mountain", driving a Daytona Coupe replica.

May his memory live long....

Your right Schipps, he was a team driver and all round hot rodder. He had a big hand in designing/building the Daytona's even though Shelby was doubtful(thinking they should have a profesional design it), he let him run with it.
