sign the e petition to stop whingers shutting down lakeside

[DHDamo]

Please follow the link to sign a petition against a group wanting all motorsport shut down because of noise. We lost Lakeside once from this small but "noisy" group of whingers.

If you don't like the sound of trains don't live on a train line.......

Should be fixed now

Done mine.
Also spread it around somewhat.
Perhaps our Qld Moderator should invite all Qld Motor Sport peak bodies to circulate this information and join the petitioners?

Done that too.

Thanks for making me aware-frustrating-we have spent 10 years trying for a motorsport complex on the Sunshine Coast and  xx**##$$$$$$  same story.These people dont realise how valuable these tracks are too help with driver training etc.EG-i brought my son a (hot)fiat 850 sport for his 12th birthday which he loved-no other family members did/?and he did motorkhanas on concrete/dirt and helped setting up the events-he even drove a mates vc v8 commodore race car at the Gympie skidpan-size of the smile i will never forget-his life experiences in those years are inbedded-to this day he drives a 180 series Merc and has no interest in racing etc but is one safe sober driver.Thanks QLD and locals to keep these venues open-if you have a AASA/CAMS license and lose your civvy license as far as i know you cant race=safer sober appreciative drivers.
We are all safe in our lounge until the overpowered undertrained person loses control of there vehicle from lack of experience-we need more of these facilities...MORE motorsport complexes please.
PS-i kept the 55hp 850 and still drive it as much as poss as well as my alfas-rantrantrant-how about a "rallye"

Should open up the short track at the creek to the public, recon there would be some protests though!

Yes do that Brooke 308-we all may have too re-install our headlights for night time fog motorkhanas--ahh the plot thickens and sickens-
I was told today that the petition against"motorsport venues" is not only QLD raceway and Lakeside but all motorsport complexes--any updates

You know, why don't these people get it!

We need to equip our young drivers with skills that they will use for life and to possibly save their life and others.

Our kids are put through 13+ years of education and we still do not have compulsory defensive driving courses at part of secondary education.

Venues where young drivers can test their skills in a controlled environment are an essential factor in reducing road carnage.

All of my kids will know how to control a vehicle well before they venture onto our roads.

My primary goals in getting my kids involved in motorsport is to a) educate them in car control, and b) introduce them to a sport they may want to continue with later in life.

Keep me informed on these local motorkhanas 

The petition does state Qld motorsport venues - not very cool.

Since I've been watching it tho, it's gone from 1700 signatures to 3800. Keep spreading the word!

I'm no spokesperson, just saw it come up on a facebook page that I'd liked and thought it was imperative to share: track attack, who I think are the guys who run the excel cup.
