favorite Holden drivers

well Moff can have his own topic why cant I ???

favorite holden drivers..without a doubt for me it is Peter Brock and craig Lowndes...

but Larry has to be up there but maybe a tad past it by now..Allan grice was good to watch in his torana's...and tomas mazera has always been a favorite of mine as well...there are so many good drivers from both types of cars ..but the big question i have is ..."will i be the only one replying to this topic????"

be nice Moff

Emfa should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
1. Brock (simply the best!)
2. Perkins (still going - when will he quit?)
3. Harvey
4. Richards (one of my all time fav's - he did drive Holden's for a while, so I'll include him).

I think Bondy was #1 until he defected!

Of the current Holden drivers- simple: Wayne Wakefield (Although I doubt the car has much to do with it..)

I'm certainly no Holden fan, but I'd have to nominate Mark Skaife, and Wayne Wakefield. If they drove a Ford, they'd be twice as good

Go the Holdens!!!!!!

On ya Marcus, this is about the highest quality topic ever posted here.

Seriously, over all time, how could you possibly go past Peter Brock.

Honourable mentions to Larry Perkins, Craig Lowndes and WW.

Even after his indiscretions to other makes, the great Brocky stands out as the grand master ninja of Holden drivers.

As for current drivers I like Skaifey. He speaks his mind and is a very technical driver...I like both those qualities.

Photo attached taken approx 3 years ago. From the right, Skaifey, Bucky and an "unknown gentlemen".

Hey - whoa there !

It's definitely Astroboy !

Infact that "unkwown gentlemen" even commented when he saw it..."Astroboy - cool !" he laughed.

Dammit what was his name...
