Driver, electrical engineer, and maintenance manager extraordinaire Gary Rooke is the man in the front seat when Matilda hits the road. With nearly thirty years of experience with heavy vehicles and maintaining racing vehicles, Gary knows more about Matilda and her prime mover cab “The Quon” than anyone. A critical member of the team and authentically good guy, Gary lives in the Northern Rivers with his partner Sarah.
