Just heard at the end of next month Calder Park raceway will close down for a total revamp, not sure how long this will take, I just hope its true and we get our world class drag facility back.

I just had a look at the Calder Park Raceway website and there is no information on it yet, but if it goes ahead that would be excellent for us Mexicans...

I said this about a month ago in another thread, new track to open up at Tooradin Airport as well.

I hope they redo the redo of the staging lanes.

Calder was a wasteland in 1987. Cant see that its changed much.

Well overdue for an upgrade.

I was in Adelaide last Saturday for a few hours picking up some drag racing parts, and the story I was told is AIR is in limbo because it was to be SOLD to a large wrecker in Adelaide called Russo, he payed Bob a deposit after the deposit was payed and the paper work was checked over for final sale Bob allegedly held back on a large part of the land, and said it wasn't going to be in the sale of AIR.

Its been through the law courts for some time now, until its resolved I cant see a dollar being spent on AIR.

The land in dispute is about 100 acres.

We will here soon enough, this info came from a staff member in CPR operations.

I like most who love drag racing hope this upgrade isn't another round of Bob dangling a carrot every time there is news of a new track.

Most are saying they don't believe it until they see it.
