Driving into Eastern Creek raceway yesterday for the A1 launch, I was somewhat astounded that half way down Brabham drive, a large bill board staring you in the face proclaiming

Maybe Blacktown has a history in motorsport prior to the late 80s that I'm not aware of...

WSID is right next door to EC so that's 2 international level tracks within spitting distance & a go-kart track next door.
