Viewing at Eastern Creek is no worse than that at Avesco's much loved Adelaide or even Albert Park, however they still draw excellent crowds.

Why a re-design, other categories have no problem putting on good racing at Eastern Creek.

Theres still that little problem of the environmental issue regarding the Homebush race. I for one dont think a motor race should be held at Homebush.



[QUOTE=inpitlane]He made quite a passionate argument for the contributions made by AVESCO to the standard of Motorsport in Australia and their role in improving circuit infrastructure.[/QUOTE

What did he say about the Avesco's lastest move of deserting this infrastructure and putting its long term viability in Jeopardy ?

A wise man once said, theres a difference between commercialism and professionalism.

In my opinion it is Avesco's antics that prevent v8's from being termed high in professionalism or world class.
