JUST DRIVE: Jock Goodyer 

Thanks, David! Very proud of our team and thankful to Jock & his crew for making this happen! -Toby

@@SprintCarHub I to, am very proud of you, and the efforts of your team. And a big shout out of encouragement to young Jock, all said and done mate, ya' gave it bloody red hot crack, NOBODY could have asked any more of you than that, that's for sure!! If you keep on driving the wheels off the bloody thing every meeting you go to, you too could end up one day with 10 Australian Sprintcar Championships under your belt, like my own personal hero, and winner of the very last Speedcar Feature Event (only because, I think, by that time [1996] Sprintcars were "persona-non-grata" as far as the Sydney City Council, and the Royal Agricultural Society were concerned) at the track. What a sad, sad 😔 ending to such an historic venue. It just makes me so wild to think that I grew up in a Sydney, with 3 World Class Speedway venues, one was dirt and a 1/3 mile long, one was (for a time) asphalt and a little more than a 1/4 mile (Liverpool) and of course last, but never, NEVER least, was the "Tacky Top", the Speedway by the Freeway, the clay of Parramatta City Raceway. I could go to Parramatta on a Friday night as it then was, and I could go to Liverpool or the Showground of a Saturday. I grew up in Liverpool, so more often than not, about 10 of us young "ner-do-wells" would, er, "get into the Speedway," through this way and that, and spend the $7.50 or so on chips and drinks and crap, and watch Barry Graham win the bloody feature ... again!! But Barry was no slouch when it came to racing his Speedcar (Australian for "Midget") or on a dirt or even clay track, something that he also proved himself quite adept in, over at the Parramatta track, in his Midget. God how ever do we miss those days? Showgrounds, sold to that "snake in the Grass", Rupert Murdoch, Liverpool City Raceway, sold to a Mall Developer, Parramatta, a "Compulsory Acquisition by the State Government for a Railway Shunting Yards. Would you believe it? And all the while, the promotion Company was doing all its "due diligence" on their end, and "negotiating with the sole other party, and acting in good faith with the STATE GOVERNMENT", no less, why would you NOT TRUST the State Government?

How good? So good.

Well ya' just gunna have to wait aren't ya' mate?

Thanks Belinda! -Toby
