    The picture of Jack Brabham with Sterling Moss, holding the Austrailian Gran Prix Trophy in 68 is a true testament to Austrailian Motorsport!:thumbsup: R.I.P. Sir Jack!

    I was at the first Goodwood Revival in 1998, and Sir Jack was driving, if memory serves, one of his old Formula 2 cars in one of the historic races.

    The amazing things was that he absolutely hammered the car, driving it flat-out and drifting it through the corners.

    My greatest regret is getting into F1 after Clark, Brabham, Rindt and those guys were gone.

    At least I was present for Graham's Hill's retirement speech, at Silverstone in 1975 . . .
