Very sad to hear. These "old" style tracks are dissappearing every year. Their so much better than the politically correct mass produced tracks they make now! I have some very fond memories as a kid with the "old man" at Lakeside and Surfers. Lakeside was a legendary track, I can still remember DJ and Brocky running door handle to door handle lap after lap, the awesome sound of the old Sports Sedans, the wailing fury of the old F2's and most of all, the balls out madness of the F5000's....
