You may have seen on the news last night (25-8-2005) that the Darlington Park Raceway at the Gold Coast is facing closure due to noise complaints from nearby residents.
The reporting on this story by Channel 7 and Channel 9 News and again this morning on Sunrise was heavily biased towards the operators of the track. An article on the ABC website tells a slightly different story: http://www.abc.net.au/goldcoast/stories/s1058706.htm |

What a F@#KING bunch of tools those residents and the council are!!! can't believe they would rather see these guys on the street instead of a race track it's unbelievable and completely stupid. :jab: :jab: :jab:

The track was thre first.
The residents moved in knowing a track was there. What else do they think you do with a race track, walk on it for exercise???? : Seriously people need to grow up and take responsibility for their decisions. More fool them if they can't handle the noise from a race track. They moved there knowing that, they live with it! Track was there first. People should go. :evil_laug

I have heard that it may be turned into a quarry - now that would be out of the frying pan and into the fire for the local residents who are complaining
