    I think Alan Jones will like to argue that one...

    and plenty more...

    Brocky is a legend for sure.... But how would he go in a run off against Jim Richards, John Bowe, even Alfie....

    Jum is incredible full stop.... STILL competitive, although currently experiencing his toughest season for a while...

    What about Larry P, and Gardner etc etc...

    Some sensational and durable Aussie (and NZ) talents.

    And then there's Mark Webber.....

    funny you should say that, I was up there the other day and reckon $20k would still buy the entire town :p

    my house there looks like it is worth less now than when I owned it

    as for Brock, my brother lives next door to the Oran Park manager and invited him to take his boys out to meet Brocky and Dick Johnson when they were both testing some years ago obviously and he said Brocky was really great with the kids but I ran into Brocky at QR about 3 years ago with my boy in the pits and when my boy introduced himself, in a very well-mannered adult fashion with hand extended Brock just walked off ignoring the kid ..... I put it down to a bad day for him but there was still no need to behave like that

    I wonder how Brocky and Scaify would go in a run off?
    Mark Webber could be the timekeeper !
