Senna05 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
It's a damned shame. The potential for a festival of speed, the likes of Clipsal, is more than there. Close to the train station (400m's at the closest point!) and not far from the F3/Pacific. Easy re-routes all the way around for local traffic, and massive space for teams and spectators in the infield. To add a short 350m's onto the track, you could easily loop around Broadmeadow McDonalds, and back in at the next right, back onto Lambton Road. But, as Ross suggests, the drain might be a hazzardous issue.

Ross, you may agree with this - It'd be more than interesting to see the reaction from the locals if the idea was "light heartedly" dropped to the press. After all, most of the best things that have happened to Australian Motorsport have happened as a ground swell from the people.....

Wonder what Feedback from drivers/teams on this would be like?
