kevwrx Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Hi Everyone Sorry to let you all know that we can no longer run our Friday Night Track Driving sessions at Sandown Raceway. Those of you that have booked and paid for positions on upcomming dates will have their fees refunded. Of course our weekend and weekday trackdays will continue. Kind regards Kev Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/248365-sandown-friday-nights-are-no-longer/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

archie01 Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 That sucks... I was really wanting to get to these once my car was back. +1 Kev Was the noise measured and was therefore found to be above a certain db limit before the decision was made to tell you to cancel it? Was the option of allowing this event to continue with stricter noise limitations in place entertained? As far as you know was it just a case of a few residents calling up their local authorities saying that it's too loud?? Very disappointing indeed.

STUPID PEOPLE!i would love to live next to sandown I used to live a reasonable way from Calder, and on a warm night with little wind or the wind blowing towards my place... I could hear the top fuellers back in the mid 90's before Bob ruined the party... I couldnt think of anything better to listen too!

Buraz Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 All those people bought their properties at a much cheaper price back in the day because of that very reason, they were supposed put up with the noise. And now all this crap, after they get cheap property they start bitching. I live 2min from Sandown and it really is not that loud on Friday nights nor is it too late to start complaining or making a big issue out of it, they knew what they were getting themselves into 10 years ago when they were buying their properties.

vsute Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 This is so gay , Im with ash on this one . would the residents prefer we do dounuts in there street, so fkn sick of seeing today tonight and 60 minutes doing stories on " hoons " zooming up and down ppls streets and then wen we go to a race track and not throuh there front fence they still crack the shits and complain. MASSIVE cruise needs to be organised run it through as many of the nearby streets as possiable. ??? Stuff this , im going to make a few phone calls to the ppl deemed " important " in that area and see where they would prefer us to race .........
