Rally Oz

[djr81]

Just thought I would say a big thanks for nothing to our beloved WA State Government. With the last Rally Oz over and done with we now have absolutely no international class events left in the state.

Atleast now the worthless dogs can go back to focussing full time on being corrupt & incompetent.

But we do - we have the Red Bull Air Race - oh wait - that would run at a total loss considering they can't/aren't charging admission to see it!

I believe they started the track down at Bunbury finally this week.

If that ever gets finished you should get a round of the JGTC which will be tops!

your loss is our gain apparently - ie I'll believe it (rally Oz in QLD in 2008) when i see it. but rumour has it, it could be a tarmac rally! yeah!

Hadn't heard the rumour about it being a Tarmac Rally - if it is then it may be worth heading to QLD for!

Oh, great a fourth rate advertorial for a dodgy fkn energy drink. In Perth. Unreal. Wouldn't walk across the road to see it.

I will believe that the Bunbury track exists when I am driving down the main straight in my GT-R. Until then it is only a proposal.

Bad enough that country WA gets sod all compared to Perth. Then if you start to consider that Perth gets sod all compared to the east.... How many "National" series never get further west than Adelaide? Just about all of them. It is a joke.

It wasn't a loss, so much as the government literally couldn't give it away. They didn't want to hold it this year, but had to because of the contracts they signed. Tells you how on top of things they are. They put together some dodgy alledged economic analysis that "proved" $10 spend on a pie & a drink at an Ironman event in Busselton was worth $147 in economic activity. Apparently that same $10 spent at rally Oz was worth $16.

These pillocks reckon the money spent is too much of a drain. How much was this years state budget surplus? $1 billion, no $2 billion.

That would be awesome!! Would definately make the trip for that
