Why destroy the beautiful NZ environment building a permanent track when there is plenty of tarmac in the city that can be used? I have never been there but I would imagine that it has facilites that can be used.

After looking at the map of the track I reckon it looks quite good . the last track they had was smaller, go Wellington I hope something comes of it.

V8 Opponents Welcome Wait For Decision

People opposed to a Wellington V8 Supercar race are pleased that a decision will not be made until after Christmas.

Councillor Wade Brown says she is going to start a website encouraging Wellingtonians to oppose the race.

The Wellington Street Race Supporters group, formed by Mark Blumsky, launched a website on Wednesday morning and has had over a thousand registrations.

Councillor Wade Brown says she has had plenty of emails from people against the V8 race.

She says people will have time to think about the negative effects it will have on the city in the next few months.

She understands that some motorsport fans think V8s are cool, but questions whether, in an era when climate change is the biggest environmental threat, a V8 race sends the right message.

She also said the other day that v8s were so 20th century.

This woman is a joke, if any one could find her contact details then we could send her a few friendly emails.

This bit gets me the most. I mean if there was a race in the city, and a good portion of it was cut off to traffic, most people taking public transport to get to the race, then the traffic levels would be considerably less.

I would like to see the impact 32 v8 cars have on the environment.

I reckon this is all a joke. There will always be someone compaining, i.e, the auckland council or the wellington police. We should all just suspect that TC is either gng to renew the pukekohe deal or get the v8s going to Manfeild.
