Did anybody go this week end for the 50 thousand meet? It was ok, usually its great racing from the sprinties. They had the junior sedans there, like, 14-17 Year olds racing shitbox escorts, commodores, cortina's etc, and one of the kids got blind sided and drove head on into the concrete barrier in the center and completely rolled over, damn that was funny.

Their trying to close the one here in Auckland after 75 years the locals have decided it is 'to loud'

Why on gods earth would you move to the same area as a Speedway and then complain about the noise baffles me completly.

I used to go out there every weekend with my father. I remember one time the big sprint cars where chucking mud so far up into the audience they closed the pie shop at the top of the stand. Laughing

This has also happened at Parra, except people aren't complaining, PCR is just cracking down really fiercly on the DB limit. A couple of people got slammed for it a couple of meetings ago.

It usually happens with sprintcars as they are pushing the cars to the limit. For example each sprintcar can be 85dba from 7 meters away. But at this event in NZ the heat of 8 cars could not go over this. So to make the car quieter some had two mufflers and geared their cars so they wouldnt rev any higher than 6000rpm. This led to shit boring racing.
