Overview

As a broadcaster and motorsports legend, Neil 'Crompo' Crompton has had the best seat in the house for the last 40 years of Australian motorsport. As a kid from Ballarat in country Victoria, Neil was obsessed by speed. It was a passion that would take him to the top of motorsport and see him, at 28 years old, lining up on the grid at the Bathurst 1000, driving for a team run by his childhood hero, Peter Brock. Over more than 30 years, Neil has raced wheel-to-wheel with some of the biggest stars the sport has ever seen in this country. Neil has seen and done it all: thrilling wins, heartbreaking disappointments and witnessing the tragedy of competitors and mates lost to the sport they all loved. Since 2003, as the trusted and respected modern-day voice and face of Supercars racing on television in Australia, Neil has added the audio soundtrack from the commentary box to some of the most iconic moments in the sport. Best Seat in the House is an unputdownable memoir of one of Australia's leading motor-racing and automotive industry personalities.
