Had a busy bee at our local track and Steven found it in the back of the stores shed.[/color]
After the war 1939-1945 The Collie Motor Bike Club,was started because of complaints about the maniac's (Main Street Maniac's) on Motorcycles disturbing peace and quiet and tranquility of Collie.
The local police constable Williams suggested we form a Club and use the old wheat paddocks east of Collie.The club members then cleared a block south of the race track but upset the golfers.Then to Allanson 5km west of Collie.4th area - Westralia was next to Griffin Coal Mine,then finally a permanent home by the Stockton Open cut(endless water supply) From the notes of Percy Cull CMCC WA

Just spoke to Gus Vernon and he said, it used to get hooked up to the phone lines running down the road and all the farmers could here the results as all the phones would ring in the area,thus they  could listen to the results getting relayed from start to finish of the quarter mile  ;D
