interesting news!

We will wait in anticipation for the future! Hopefully popular affordable motorsport!

Hopefully this means they will return Calder to its former glory. Whoever has been running it for the last 10 years has totally f'd it.

Sadly this will go on for ages.I have to agree this is the final chapter for Calder.It's already falling behind in many areas cant see any progress any time soon.R.I.P

EDManual · 06-01-2013, 12:09 PM

thats really sad its gone to this... why cant the govt just take it over for the public good?! Motorsport fans really get nothing when it comes to our taxes.

I think that is a bit premature, it is well known that he has shut the place down for a while until they sort things out, the things from FB you are copying onto here are NOT from Calder Park themselves or from Rodney Jane, the last line of the media in the first post release says it all to me, maybe you should go back and read it and stop being a drama ******

Correct and what was written on the face book page would depend who had control of what was being written at the time, Calder Park Promotions Pty Ltd or Calder Park Raceway Pty Ltd.

It's not about being a drama queen, but the place needs some serious investment and we know that the Taylors Lakes area has grown substantially in the last decade or so with housing. Prime real estate along that corridor.

You do the maths...

Calder Park Motorsport Heritage FB page is under the control of the Friends of Bob Jane, so you know straight away where their loyalties lie.

Bob has said himself in a room where I was standing that the land can't be built on as it too close to the airport and the planes do U turns over it, for those that have flown you might have seen this, I have.

Give Rod a chance, afterall HE said in HIS media release that they are looking forward to it continuing - you do the maths
