"To do something well is so worthwhile that to die trying to do it better cannot be foolhardy. It would be a waste of life to do nothing with one's ability, for I feel that life is measured in achievement, not in years alone."

There is a book about him? Hmmm now I gotta get it. Although, i still have the book on the 917/956/962 to read. It is really interesting, I am just a bad reader.

If anybody here hasn't seen it, go and acquire a copy of the movie Trio at the Top. It's a New Zealand movie about Bruce, Chris Amon and Denny Hulme , and details their racing careers from start to finish. Great watch.
