Should a 302 Cleveland really be called a 302 Geelong?? No 302's with a Cleveland block where built in Cleveland

Calder was cancelled for last Friday because of bad weather or they were possibly fixing the return road.

im sure its BOB JANE who owns Caulder Park....well i dont mean to sound sour...but i hope he kicks the bucket soon so someone can take over and fix that hole up! everytime i go there i fall in a different hole from excavations......no to mention we have to sit on DIRT to spectate......the only thing that has changed in the past 30 years is those dam trap lights that have been broken from day 1 !!!

Who wants a group buy on caulder park raceway?

Bob will never sell Calder Park, its the love of his life and when its passed on you will find that his boys are not allowed to sell it either.
We need a new track or someone with a real forward vision, the sport of drag racing is growing at a quick rate Vic & S.A are still missing out. :eclipsee_

Not due to noise restraints and a cetian amount of big motorsport events each year and of course the V R C own the track (wrong type of horsepower for me )
