Hey Im couldn't see this posted anywhere so just in case it hasnt i thought I'd let fellow South Aussie's know what's going on..
- I just copied it straight from the Facebook page. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Adelaide International Motorplex Global Basic Info Type: Sports & Recreation - Automotive & Racing Description: The group for anyone interested in supporting or following the progress of the Consortium of Adelaide Businessmen trying to build a "multi-code" Motorsport Park in Adelaide Contact Info Email: glennst@baonline.com.au Location: Somewhere in Port Adelaide with any luck Adelaide, Australia Recent News 21/07/2009 5:54PM : This is as serious as it gets, if you are serious about Motorsport IN Adelaide then you need to show your support and get to the meeting or more importantly the protest that should be happening at the end of August. 21/07/2009 12:15am : There will be a public meeting being held in Pt Adelaide at 2pm on Sunday the 16th of August (location to be confirmed) at which all people who have an interest in the proposed Pt Adelaide Motorplex will have an opportunity to not only to hear from the consortium themselves, also from politicians, guest speakers etc. (I quote) "I guess it goes without saying that we ALL have to be on our best behaviour for the protest, especially if you're bringing your car. With the media there, all it will take is for some stooge to do a skid, and we're ALL screwed... so tell your mates to behave " ----------------------------------------------------------------- A text message also went around. Public Meeting at Port Adelaide 16 August 2009 at 1400 (2pm) Protest at Parliament House 28 August 2009 1700 (5pm) - to maximise media.. Details are to be posted up soon apperently. That's all I've heard for now. Our chance to do our bit to try and get a track approved. |

(Quoted from another forum)
Hi all, post this on all the forums you can at let everyone know!!! A website will soon be up and running with all the details. There will be a public meeting being held in Pt Adelaide at 2pm on Sunday the 16th of August (location to be confirmed) at which all people who have an interest in the proposed Pt Adelaide Motorplex will have an opportunity to not only to hear from the consortium themselves, also from politicians, guest speakers etc. This will be followed by a protest at Parliament House, Nth Tce in the city on Friday the 28th of August at 5pm that will bring the city to a standstill. Police permits will be arranged and we expect total co-operation of the Police. Everyone is to be on their best behavior as there will be a huge media presence. Bring your cars and your family. The events will be self policed so if you see someone doing something stupid that could harm the image of the modified car/motorsport community don't hesitate to report it. We are an important part of the community and we (who do the right thing) deserve better treatment from the Media and the Government. Consider this - A footballer only has to purchase a Guernsey, shorts, some boots and pay his subs to play (the government and councils generally supply all the ovals and facilities). Someone involved in modified cars/motorsport probably spends on average around $30,000 to 'play', whilst at the same time much of that money goes into local businesses creating jobs and apprenticeships. Not only do we not have a place to play, we have a situation where by a private consortium, who wishes to build the track on the land the government offered them (and which the consortium offered to purchase or lease off of the government), with no taxpayer input required, has the offer knocked back because it will 'create more hoons on the public roads'. If you want this Motorplex to become a reality, and can see all the positives for SA that will go with it, just spend a couple of hours of your life to attend the meeting and then the protest, making it one of the noisiest protests in SA history! This is our one chance to show that we, the modified car/motorsport/business community are more than a just bunch of hoons who are a drain on society. Enough is Enough!!! Stay tuned for more news! |
