Hi Peter, I am unaware of the prices for this season, would you like to share admission costs please?

@@Paris_Charles club show to watch up on viewing deck cost me $40.00. Speed week will cost $55.00. Next weekend is the same both nights. No wonder there weren't many people there for the opening night.

Hi Sam, I did ask for permission.

Happy to help

Maybe you need to go to the next meeting.

Sorry I just did photos. I invite you next season to come and do the video :)

Glad you enjoyed the video. 😊

I hope so too and thank you for the kind words, I hope you enjoy my page. I believe it is important to keep the memories and history alive :)

such a shame to hear, it was a good venue when i visited. thank you for the update.

thank you for your kind words, I will try to keep the videos coming. Im just not sure what people what to see next?

thank you.

it was a great place to visit, i can only hope somebody with passion buys the venues and rebuilds it better than it ever was.

Would love to see something done with the venue

It would make an amazing movie set for a mad Max/ thunderdome type movie

Who are you and what Junior Sedan did you drive?

@@Paris_Charles Jesse Arthur, 5 and 10, but you should know that haha

Would love to see someone do something to carry Speedway in Adelaide forward

Speedway was a part of our family, growing up as a kid I did the exact same.

That's awesome, who is your dad and when was the record set?

@@Paris_Charles Steve James, it was on the 20/2/2010

Sometimes unfortunate accidents happen when you least expect 😢

@@Paris_Charles FYI , all members of the group I was in were wearing safety glasses 😁

some have tried but sadly no progress

Thank you :)

@Paris_Charles no worries mate

He sure was, we are thankful for the memories, RIP Bill 'The Wizard' Wigzell

thank you

Do you have any memories or photos you would like to share, always love to hear other people's stories

@@Paris_Charles As a traveler to Australia, I didn't know what to expect to come across at the tracks. Here in the States, the vast majority of tracks have grandstands or bleacher seating, and any left over grassy area would be for overflow crowds. Australia seems to be the opposite. I paid the $5 for the stands at Premier, but got to Speedway City a little late and sat in the grass, near turn one. Fortunately, a nice lady behind me offered the spare camping chair besides her, since the occupant was in the pits. If I had to do it all over again, I'd buy a camping chair right off and donate it on my departure. Side note: My AirBnb host let me use hers for Murray Bridge Speedway and Gilman Speedway. I have a fond memory of sitting next to a local at Murray Bridge and trying hard to work my way through the Aussie slang he was using. I loved it, met a lot of great people in Australia.

@@jogguys because in its last infancy it was run dreadfully.

i will need to be doing more research into that area of development

Whtf

it will be an amazing venue, looking forward to seeing the lights go green! :)

Virginia, 1/2hr north of adelaide. Right next to the old Adelaide International Raceway, which is also rotting away.

hi james, at the very end of the video clip my email address is displayed. you will have to pause the video and copy it down. if you have photos and information you are most welcomed to share. regards, pc :)

no, can't say i was

wow what a story, what f1 drivers and whos sprintcars did they drive?

@@Paris_Charles Martin Brundle and Johnny Herbert, they got in a ton of trouble for it, there was talk of fines but I dont think anything came of it, this was a thursday before the G.P. in adelaide! The cars were Burfords and Phil March's, I could be wrong there it was a long time ago.

@@timfletcher9907 wow thanks for sharing, i wish there were photos available?

@@Paris_Charles pre iphone I'm afraid and it was a strictly no media. I think it was something to do with breaching driver contracts. Another thing that happened back then was the the time Senna and Mansel crashed their BEA Mercedes loan cars at 1 in the morning. Story was they were drifting these brand new 190 benzs around whitmore square Senna lost it and they stuck the car in a shop window, by the time we got there with the tilt tray the scene was deserted.Dragged the car out dropped it at BEA as per instructions, only found out years later when reminiscing about the good old days with a few mates who were high up in the adelaide f1 organization,lol.

Adelaide does have a speedway - Gillman. But its a bikes only track running Solo's and Sidecars. Other than that the nearest car speedway is 80 km up the freeway at Murray Bridge.

we are always hopeful that the parklands race will springboard a resurgence in interest and the possibility of a Adelaide / outer suburban venue in the future

wow, cool who is your dad what number speedcar did he drive?

She was the blame had it sold then backed out over 500k gst

Can you show me proof of your statement? I would love to know how she is the blame? Wendy and Bob carried Speedway in Adelaide on their backs for almost a quarter of a century. At 70 years of age they both deserved to retire.
