Heath,

It hasn't been run for ages as far as i know.
I think they lost access to the track.
The neighbours accross the road would complain about smoke n noise n stuff
cant imagine why :)
I used to go and help out when I was in the Monaro Club.
we would scrutineer & organise the cars from the grid
I never had any problems with the police when coming & going myself.
But then my car didnt look overly modified & i was reasonably sensible.

I only ever got booked once in that car
i did an illegal U-turn in front of a police car. - doh !
I didnt know it was illegal to do one there :(
they police were actually really friendly, a fairly young guy and woman.
they even gave me a wave later in the day at the speed trap they were
setting up

It was a cheap way to go 1/4 mile drag racing & was mostly street registered
cars.
the fire engine & ambulance always had the last run of the day - the
ambulance always won :)

Cheers Jeff
