jeffster Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 After his UK career came to a premature end "thanks" to that awful crash at Swindon, Mark returned to his native New Zealand, and the last I heard (maybe two years ago...) was working as an Electrician...

jeffster Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 Yes, Mark was doing a practice start, away from the tapes towards the pits, and didnt notice the tractor, with excavation bucket lowered, heading towards him... Mark hit the bucket with real force, and banged himself up pretty badly...Well, it ended his career, didnt it..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
