Alright! Let's hope they get off their high horses and build this thing.

Geez, Tony Perich is probably the most humble person in Australia considering his wealth. There has never been a high horse in sight, only ever a grazing cow.
The man is bordering on legend status for his support of NSW motor racing pretty much out of his own pocket for 40 years. He has done it all his own way, just ask the govt when they tried to take his land for Badgerys Creek Airport all those years ago. |

Somewhere I read a rumour they were looking in the Southern Highlands for some land to build a track.
Today I read that Wakefield Park is up for sale. TP has enough money to make the track extension at Wakefield that was mooted some time ago (4-5 years ago if memory serves correctly). The council are less likely to have objections as it's already a running track and there is a reasonable influx of income to the local community. You can see large portions of the track from spectator points. Could we see 2 and 2 add up to four or am I making 1 and 1 add up to wild speculation. Let's see what happens. |

Wakefield Park is not in Western Sydney and can never have an Oran Park
feel because the spectator fences are 100 metres back from the track mostly. Its good for what it is. The ONLY -REPEAT ONLY- way to keep an "Oran Park" is to find a way to keep the one that exists.It would be more feasible and less expensive to do noise attenuation earthworks and masonry walls,tighten up the carparking and access,get rid of 50% of the waste ground around the existing holding than it would be to try and re-invent the wheel elsewhere,-------------- and you'd have much change out of 40 mil. |
