GCCC had a closed door council meeting to discuss whether the race would be supported beyond this year and although there has been nothing released in the press as yet, one of the local shopkeepers who is on the council has made no secret of the fact that the vote was 100% against the event.
The overinflated attendance figures compared to the actual bums on seats did not match up to the trouble they have had to clean up with the party theme afterwards and all the young drunks who were never on the coast for the motor racing in the first place.
Add in the rapid rail system and it is finished.
I am still interested to see how they will fit the rapid rail tracks and the racetrack all into the narrow bit of land from the first chicane to the Red Rooster hairpin.
He did add however, that should the I-Mett project get the green light from the Newman Govt they will throw their weight behind that.
