This seems to be happening everyehere.

Clader park is a nother example...I remember when it was a track in the middle of no where......now there are houses right on its perimiter. Calder has lost many events like V8 super cars and drag nationals, either through public complaints or poor facility maintenence. The car club I race with can no longer afford to run sprints there dut to insurance costs pushing the track hire fee from $4,000 a day to just over $8000 a day.

And sandown, that has tight noise restrictions, I believe no more than 90 odd Db from the side of the race track. Just for the residents. And Sandown was approved for drags but residents complained enough that it never got off the ground. Oh well...I guess the drags on Princess HWY outside sandown are better for residents.
