The only reason that I can see is that with the demise of Albert Park, the Gold Coast and Newcastle, Supercars want to have at least one "marquee street race event".

The 2022 calendar will look very different.

With none of the aforementioned street races likely to take place and Perth being out of the question for at least another 12 months, ditto Tasmania and possibly South Australia, Supercars are going to have to find somewhere to run.

I followed the link so the monitor must be turned on I guess. What is Facebook, do I have to join to see links? I hear it is a place that I don't want or need.

Wow, there is another person here who shares my views and beliefs re Facebook. If something needs me to be a Facebook member I avoid it and certainly have never even thought about wanting or needing to join.

What is Facebook?An inherently evil thing that has subverted democracy and facilitated hatred and stupidity world wide.
If that sounds like something you want to support go for it.If not your current position is the correct one.

I can’t explain it either but there are a whole group of people willing to do immoral and possibly illegal things to keep their jobs there.

Well the illegal and immoral things are banned in all States of Australia but legal in the ACT because it isn't a state :P

Unfortunately, they have no vacancy's for the thousands of out-of-work comedians like yourself...

I lived there for decades, as in any part of Australia, there are workers, shirkers, dole-bludgers, people who work the system rather than work, NIMBY's etc
