Foss, I'm presuming it's the same property that you can see (or could see) the old officials tower from the Highway...am I correct? Going by Rookie's map it looks about right. Boxer's is even before my time you old farts ;D. When did it close?

Yeah, guys , It's the one on Rookies map and 247, no, not that one.
I think it's maybe a private sale, homemade lookin' sign and all that. Ya can see the track outline on google earth, and yep Tim 2580 is the post code and that's it Firko, right next to the Hume.

Old farts !!! ;D I'm only 68, thats not old !!. Naah alls good.

Boxers was one of the Miniature TT circuits, ie. a short, oiled dirt road race track, it was about 3/4 of a mile around, maybe a bit longer, lefts, rights, a stop corner goin' onto the loooong main straight, it had bloody braking markers at the end of it.

My young bloke Brian and I rode at the last Goulburn club day there in about 1978

1972 was the last Open meeting there , won me first (and only) Unlimited A grade there against a fella, Neil Daines on a 500 Goldie / Hagon,

Just pipe dreams about buying it, eh ? chance would be a fine thing

Here ya go, Pit staight Startline at Boxers Creek circa 1962, Donny Greig on 21V, ya can see top lh of the pic a rider on the LH sweeper off the main straight, 3 more further around, Hume Hwy beyond the trees. Boxers was a big, open, fast track. Beezers seem to be the weapon of choice, eh ?

So does the property that is for sale contain the whole track or has a previous subdivision divided the track.
Is it the track for sale in the link by foss...

Foss...is it the Boxers Creek tower you can see back in the bush from the Hume Hwy? I say "can see" but I haven't spotted it in a few years so it may have blown down.

That's the one Firko, I haven't seen the tower there for a while either, but it was back near some trees, Slides remebers that bit of bush, eh ?

On another note , the Goulburn Club is in negotiations regarding a Motorcycling complex just north of the Goulburn Speedway, the local paper ran a poll on the complex, 800 or so for, 24 against. I must ring Herfo and see how they are going with it.
