Newcastle needs a lot of things. A drag strip is not one of them. If all Novocastrians had a vote and we compiled a list of Newcastle’s wants and needs, a drag strip would appear at the very bottom of a very long list of items, if at all.

Maitlander, do we need all the football fields? no not really but that doesnt mean alot of people dont want them, in South Australia the government have gone out of there way to stop the Adelaide Motorplex consortium from spending there own money to build a dragstrip, for what reason? well they have said they wont build a track for hoons (they wont be building it and its not for hoons), not to mention all the ignorant public that cry about the tracks we do have, be it because a track 40km is to loud or because they seem to think when people are done at the track there just going to race home

You can usually pick the ones telling the truth is the ones that Tony Abbott hardly says much but Julia Gillard nervously has plently to whinge about loudly in public places. Yes she's quite tense and must be smoking a thousand cigarettes and ten bottles of rum a day to calm her nerves. I was a Labor supporter before I lost my investment with the whole country of Ausssie battlers too.

So who wants to leave there cars parked any where in Cessnock?
