I surely hope this track will survive just out of spite. I get tired of people that build next to racetracks, heliports or whatever and then expect them to shut down because of noise. And pollution, give me a break, oil and other junk that gets dumped on highways and roads causes more problems than a racetrack that is used a couple of times a year.

lakeside is historic.... much more challenging then queensland raceway with its flat hairpins. Lakeside is a true gentlemans track, however short.
The v8's probbaly wouldnt ever return there due to the pitlane facilities... but for smaller catagories... it would be a blast !! long live undulations ! -jason ps. all you have to do is download and race the Lakeside track that has been created for Grand Prix Legends the computer game and you realise how much of a great circuit it is. |

Lakeside is a fantastic drivers circuit, and is certainly more of a challenge than Queensland Raceway. But they were created in different era's and if you start with a billiard table, it's very expensive to build hills.
Lakeside should be saved for club level motorsport, and I hope the funds are found to do just that. |

Does anyone know who bought the package of engineering plans for Lakeside at the clearance auction?
