Just read "On the Grid Motorsport" that Harry Firth passed away yesterday 26/04/14, aged 96.

Not a bad innings, but probably had an agreement with Him up there, that he still had work to do.
Harry had to get this finished "Ford & I". Now into print with Australian Car Muscle magazine.

Thanks for making motorsport so enjoyable.

What a legendary guy - both as a driver and team manager.
Cunning as a fox and sharp witted to the end.

R.I.P Harry , motorsport is a sadder place without you

Australian Motorsport has lost a true legend. He impacted on many a drivers career and gave the motor sport followers a great show to go and see with his teams and drivers.

R.I.P. Harry Firth and join your friends at the never ending race way in the sky, getting a pretty big and good field up there.

An amazing innings, and he really made the most of it. An incredible person, who really left his mark. RIP Harry.
