I copied this from Wikipedia:
Brabham now works for BMW Group Australia as a driver trainer at many
different events around the country teaching others to drive safer and
smarter, including teaching drivers to race for BMW supported celebrity
races at the Australian Grand Prix. His son Matthew Brabham is also
following in the family interest and is a very successful Kart racer.

Whatever became of Geoff Brabham?
I remember watching in car footage of him at R/A
in an Indy car. Thought he was hell for quick.
Kas, do you have any special recollections of
him?
