Probably the one of, if not the most intelligent person I have every met. Totally practical and bloody Funny to boot.
It won't be the same not seeing him at the track, I still remember it as if it was yesterday watching the Scrutineers scratching their heads and trying to answer Jacks questions the the NZ Modified champs in Dunedin so many years ago.
So many have done so little with so much more!
A top guy who who was an inspiration to many and who will be greatly missed.
Catch you later Jack, Modified driver 555, and occasional Super Driver 99t, 1NZ04
( If anyone was guessing where I got the inspiration to run 20 inches of stagger on my NZ Champs winning Super Saloon I guess you won't be any more, Thanks Jack and Steve I owe you one)
