Quoted for future reference. It'll happen!

Damn this state. I'm moving to Melbs.
No, really. I'm too young and adventurous to live in Retrement Land through my youth.

heard today that they have lost it for the 2010 round, which like blues mentioned should force the commencement of the upgrade sooner. The state govt. is committed to its $5m upgrade of Barb's, so hopefully WA will get it back in 2011.

Word on the street is that lotterywest is looking very seriously at pulling aus day fireworks aswell so you can add that to your list.

As far as I am concerned Red Bull can go. Best bit is the fly over by the FA-18. As a genuine motorhead I hate going to barbagallo's for the V8's. I have not been for years now. Crap entry / egress, crap track in terms of overtaking, crap facilities. Everyone knows the entire track is on borrowed time with houses that close. Claremont speedway anybody? The fact the track was there first will become irrelevant. If this forces the governments hand then happy times.

Yep, personally not surprised. As Perth gradually becomes the retarded sister city to Roystonvasey, at least we can say 'this is a local track, for local people'.

Spoke to someone very well positioned in one of the bodies outside government involved with Barbs and he couldn't believe that I had the impudence to suggest that the track could be improved. Apparently there is none better around (well not close to Perth anyway).

The V8's don't get me wet, but this kind of thinking will see us lose many more events. As far as the air race goes, if it ever proves it's worth fine, that doesn't mean we shouldn't be looking to attract the WRC or other events as well.

The arrogance of the V8 Stuporcars, scheduling it for the same weekend as Albany Round the Houses.

When push came to shove, most of the true motoring fans (including officials) were going to to head South. Hell, I've had my Albany accomodation booked since last year.
