Thats right - get ya last rides in cause it wont be there possibly by end of next year or even start of year.

It is the first land development stage of the Southwest growth centre in Syd, and they want to start earthworks next year. You would hope another track gets built somewhere, I doubt it though...

This has been going on for years! Maybe this time Oran will actually lose, go the same way as Amaroo. Developers - if they really want it they'll do anything to get it.

Guys - it is going - no ifs...government has it all planned...and lets put it this way im an engineer......and was recently out there without my bike......

Anyway - I think they may look at putting in another track, particularly with all teh club support they get, but it maybe that Golburn is going to be closest?? Personally I would not get ya hopes up for another Sydney track.

From 4 to 1: Amaroo..Catalyna (the one at Katomba)...now Oran Park

Gee thanks Carr for leaving us the creek.

I was under the impression that it was atleast 2-3 years away
Oh well that leaves us 2 Eastern Creek and Wakefield Park.
Although I have heard rumours of a track being built in Bathurst
within Mt Panorama anyone else heard this?

Look it may take 2 years for em to start developing, but it is highly possible it will not be there in a year or so.

I remember going to the last ever race at Castlereagh Dragstrip.

It was fucking mayhem, people were souveniring everything that wasn't tied down. Some blokes even had pickaxes and were smashing off bits of track

I think Clare's had a brilliant idea. Last ode to Oran park ASF memorial ride day. Just need somebody smart to organize it.

fuck, not me!..
for the south track $2500 for the day. I expect we then have to orgy manise our own ambulance etc
there are two groups who facilitate ride days
I will call them and get prices.

now all we have to do is get numbers, agree on a date etc.
i'm no good for much before mid oct of course! but will spectate if its before that.[:p]
I assume if we get say 10 or more, we might be able to negotiate a discount. if we get loads, then we might be able to do our own day to the exclusion of all other numpties:D
thats all the work i'm doing for the time being, now those who definately think they wanna do it can post away. cheers
