Just thought I'd share this video of the aussie V8 legend, Peter Brock. I recently discovered videos of Brock's driving while browsing some aussie V8 supercars videos and was immediately in awe of how much control he had over his Torana A9X. IMO V8 supercar drivers are almost as insane as rally drivers

Definitely an amazing driver. I used to get Peter Brock mixed up with Pete Brock.
Interesting note: Peter Brock died in a Shelby Daytona Coupe(reproduction)....a car that was designed by Pete Brock.

 

This kind of stuff reminds me of that movie that Eric Bana did about his Falcon XB.

 

Don't compare a V8 supercar driver to a rally car driver. They're good, but not on the same gLoeb!

 

Haha I know, rally drivers have to be pretty nucking futs to drive the way they do in extreme conditions. I was just saying that you pretty much have to be clinically insane to do both types of racing. Rally and V8 super cars require completely different driving skills from one another.

 

BRE2.net is a good site for the history and stuff. Luckily for me they are local and they are awesome guys.
