On a similar theme to Phil's post, how about all the NSW tracks that have vanished? Warwick Farm Catalina Park Mount Druitt Hume Weir Amaroo Park Siverdale Hillclimb Amaroo Hillclimb Lithgow Hillclimb Robertson Hillclimb Lakeview Hillclimb Parkes Hillclimb Foley's Hillclimb Hawkesbury Hillclimb And so on etc, There are probably that I've forgotten? Cheers, Greg

Catalina Park was a great circuit, although there was no room for mistakes.

I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

I grew up at Liverpool Speedway, every Saturday night for the first 15 years of my life. My dad use to race sedans and Grand Nationals....

Parramatta Park once had a speedway, and also a road circuit.

You can see the old Pitt Town air-strip, on the right.
