Thanks Foss its a piss cutter. Do you or know anyone who has a copy of the 1989 aussie long track gp at bathust with wigg. Very fast racing and the most exciting track event I have seen. I have the 1990  event but have been looking for the 1989 &1991 events for years. Ricky days caric video did the events, I spoke to Ricky a few years back and he did not have a copy.

I'll see what I can find, Hoony. I was talking to Kevin McDonald yesterday, will ring him again in the next day or two and ask if he knows of any footage from '89.

Any way, let's hope Steve and the club can get something happening as far as the Vic Longtrack Titles go, it'll be great to see some proper Longtrack action south of the border.

Kevin told me that the Blayney Longtrack, on a Halfmile trotting track, is a goer for the first weekend in November, so we're looking forward to that.

I heard a whisper the other day that they may converting the broadford speedway / flat track to be a long track as well, by putting a straight through where the dog leg is. Just had a look at google earth it would not be a perfect oval and they would have to move the speedway control tower.

Kwakatriple the dirttrack at b/ford was a longtrack (no dogleg) when first built but was not used as such so mv decided to bring the fence to where it is now and wont be put back in the near future.
