Really saddened to read this
Crick was THE face of Truck Racing in Australia during its boom period in the 1990s, as a kid I got to go to the 1995 Trans-Tasman Truck racing meeting at Oran Park courtesy of Shell (and my dad), depsite the fact that Cricks Volvo was unable to run that day due to mechanical ills, and the fact he had then borrowed David Parsons' truck only to get involved in an incident in it, he still put on the smile when he did the rounds and the speeches in the Shell tent. You could see why he was the most popular figure in the series to go along with his success.
So young at only 47, RIP.
