Lakeside may soon be gone!!!!

If you are in Brisso, you may know and have used the old Lakeside circuit for testing, clubbys etc.

If you are a racer and have to drive for years to test, you know what a shit it is....

Us Perthies only have one race circuit, and ive gotta say, it f'in sucks. The track is boring and has corners in all the same bloody direction, bar 1. You can also lap it in under a minute... whoopee.

Even if you brizzy guys can get a large club to take over management of the facility to keep it ticking over for the clubbies that would do.

Weve got an amatuer circuit down in Collie thats run by one of the touring car clubs. Its nowhere near the spec of Barbagallo in terms of asphalt quality and safety, but its bloody good fun.

It would be a shame to lose lakeside, get behind it Brisbane!

So what's the story with the track?

I read in Motorsport News that they were trying to get heritage listing which woul mean the track has to remain as is, and therefore couldn't be bought and rdeveloped...sounded like a good idea.

Has something changed?

I always wanted to go for a wrap around Amaroo, but by the time i got my licence the track had been bulldozed.

Lakeside is another layout that looks challenging, lots of high speed flowing corners, i hope they find a way to keep it open.

Maybe the pit facilities are not as good as Queensland Raceway but the layout seems to produce better entertainment

Yeah, they're about to bulldoze catalina park in katoomba too
