Hi all

Well Well Well........a half decent story on ACA!!!!!!! Lets not turn it into a shit fight....but needless to say there are alot of people in this thread eating massive huge gobfulls of humble pie after stating the story would be shit, incorrect, poorly reasearched and do more harm then good. I'd say we had a win tonight.....maybe a small one...but a win none the less.....and if the problem and solution (a new track) stays in the media.......I'll happily be called a Hoon for the rest of my life! That story showed us responsible 'hoons' out at Mallala having fun, messing around with cars and in some cases....CRASHING!

BWHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHA.....I remember when that side of your car was straight Stewart......Oh and my sign is missing you bitch!

Now.....where too from here I hear you ask....email Rann etc......WRONG! That idiot has had his time......leave him out of the 'go zone' for a public project like a new track....that way he keeps his grubby mitts off the adulation and public support when it's done. You need to look slightly to the left!

Ladies and Gentlemen....your mission if you choose to accept it is to bring a few new players into the ring....players who can pressure the current Government like we can not.....like the so called Consortium can't. The players I refer too is as follows;

Isobel Redmond - Leader of the Opposition (Liberal)

Shadow Treasurer

*NOTE - HAVE LOOK AT WHAT THE DEPUTY LOOKS AFTER!!!!! MONEY AND GOVERNEMENT INTATIVES......WHICH = A NEW FACILITY!!!!!!!

Your email to cut and past is as follows;

Dear Isobel and Steven,

I watched with pleasure at the A Current Affair segment covering 'Hoon Driving' compiled by Kelly Klappis which aired on Channel 9 6:30pm Tuesday 4/8/09. This story adequately represented the REAL problem on our street, and highlighted the immense ommision the current Rann Government is overlooking when tackling the problem of street racing and related deaths on our streets.

You may not know, but Adelaide is desperately needing a legal, readily accessable off street racing facility. We celebrate Clipsal 500, we applaude the Classic Adelaide....but for nearly 10 years the nearest tangible facility to legally drive in a spirited manner is some 1 hour north of the city at Mallala. Adelaide International Raceway has ceased mainstream public opportunities for 10 years, and the nearest CAMS sanctioned drag strip is over 7 hours away in Victoria.

An independant Adelaide consortium has 25 million dollars waiting to construct a new multi-motorsport facility, but talks with the Rann Governement over land allocation have stalled/ceased. The Rann Governement has openly stated it will not support the construction of a new facility, denying the consortium the ability to offer an alternative avenue to street racers....denying the opportunity to assit in reducing the South Australian road toll. The Rann Governement would rather fine, crush and penalise modified vehicle owners. If a new venue saved one life.......this would be worth more than 1000 crushed cars, or millions of dollars in speed camera revenue.

As the Opposition, please investigate these claims, please action the publics desire for a new venue. The automotive industry in SA is massive, and like a big River Gum tree, it's roots and branches spread far and wide. You can be assured a public show of support from the Liberal Party on this matter will generate not only support for your party....but a huge voter swing come election time in 2010.

As much as the Rann Government deny it, the hoon problem on our streets is a POLITICAL ISSUE, and a new venue is a viable way to help reduce the problem. Support us......and we will support you.

Yours truly

Turn the tide against those that refuse to recognise and support a realistic problem.....cut, past and send this email to the above addresses and do you part.

I stood up and did my bit, and will continue too any any opportunity. Now's your chance!

RJ

Thats a pretty good idea, email the other side of the fence, Mike Rann does not want YOUR votes.... he will not listen to what WE want... so bring new players into this game and see how we go...

Lucas and QFM are cheap and good.

[Boof]

Got QFM in the wrx now very good pad, not dusty little bit squeely when cold but after normal stop there fine...Good bang for buck.

On a 2nd note just been told there closing my work down, rolling closure over next month or so..f**k

[SLED]

I highly doubt that such a statistic would be available Steve, but never the less, as I always say and as 'racin jason' has also stated in his formal letter, if a race track saves just one life, then it was all worth it.......just ask the parent's of that teenager that lives to see his own children.

[Damo_R34]

i read a good article in Boost Magazine supporting the new motorsport infrastructure, and the writer mentioned the decrease of "hooning" in the area when WSID was built. Surely there is some sort of positive and definite info floating around that the consortium can use?

[Damo_R34]

we have a track, lala.

[TALBO]

This email is directed at anyone who has played a part in slowly killing South Australian motor sport, and in turn increased those that tragically lose their lives every year on South Australian roads.

As a voter, I would like to voice my opinion and state that Mike Rann will not be getting my vote unless he wakes up to the demands of so many and provides car enthusiasts with the facility to enjoy their hobbies.... Read More

I am not alone.

A disgruntled voter,

Are there statistics anywhere that prove young lives are saved where there's a facility to take it to the track?

[RubyRS4]

Are there statistics anywhere that prove young lives are saved where there's a facility to take it to the track?

Are there statistics to prove that economies improve with extended tramlines?

Are there statistics to prove that people are healthier with a new hospital development?

Are there statistics to prove that speed cameras have indeed saved lives?

The government went ahead with spending money in these areas, with no proof. Why do we need to prove we need a motorsport complex? The public is screaming for one. And the government doesn't need to spend a cent!

[TALBO]

I'm not stating that we need to prove this state needs a race track, merely a serious question asking are there statistics that show it clearly. Was not a piss take!

[MissR34]

why should every other state have a track and not us tho

[Krishy]

CNNEL 9 has the report ACA did on drifting at G1.... lets see what they twist!

great last ending words... government doesnt think it will help and will not invest! WANKERS!

They started off with a commy doing a burnout (negative)....saying hoons doing their hooning legally....since when did we became hoons if we are out on the track???? (negative)......and those last words "the govt claims there is no stat on a track decreasing fatality on the streets" now how many commy's, falcooon's, mesoshitty's, camry's on the street are involved in crashes day in and day out....doubt they will be the one going on the track.....but where do the people (minority) take their performance vehicles to test it out etc (very negative)

So apart from a few positive points made by the people being interviewed there wasnt much positive in that story.....oh and showing a car doing a burnout not even in oz i mean seriously WTF

Lucas and QFM are cheap and good.

Lucas i am using them and absolutely loving it.....similar to QFM's they are cheap, not mega brake dust and stops when you need it to lol
