Strong emotions rose to the surface as Rob "Wacka" Stevens watched his restored classic Holden take to the speedway track 27 years after his last race.

However, the racing enthusiast's health has declined in the past six months due to prostate cancer that has spread to his bones, leaving him mostly bedridden. "There was time to restore it back to how it was so he could see it again, and everyone else could keep seeing it for the next 50 years. "Robbie spent a full day on the car , and he was in his glory up there helping with it."The Holden ran into some trouble halfway through Saturday's meeting and had to retire early, but Mr Allen said it didn't take away from being able to get behind the wheel.
