Shayne King first went to Europe in 1993 , two years after his elder brother Darryll had already flown across to test the waters in 1991 . Darryll King had a glorious 10- year run at the 500cc world titles – he finished 49th in 1991 , 34th in ‘ 92 , 6th in ‘ 93 , 11th in ‘ 94 , was 3rd in ‘ 95 , 5th in ‘ 96 , was twice runner-up , in ‘ 97 and ‘ 98 , and finished a disappointed 15th , after crashing , in 1999 . He made a brave comeback from neck injury to finish 5th in 2000 . His last four seasons in Europe were as a team rider for the Husqvarna factory . Darryll abandoned the GP scene in Europe at the end of 2000 and concentrated on the Australian domestic circuit in 2001 , where he immediately struck gold by running away with both the Australian open class and Thumpernats titles ( for four-strokes ).
