Change of Tune

I think everyone did.  But the overseers of said renovation fell well short of the required standard.  Hence where we are now.  At what cost?  Add Hastings,  more cost.  And not just counted in dollars, but in loss of confidence,  reduced participation,  owners voting with their feet...and now we have a new shiny CEO of our industry regulator.  Three new imports from Oz for that same body...and now a consultant team - quoted elsewhere as costing north of seven figures - can these new incumbents not find some ideas between them all?

Well you aren't exactly full of great ideas are you?

You can throw brickbats all you want but I cut you some slack in that you obviously don't know how difficult it is to get these tracks renovated correctly.  Australia have had their problems as well.  Without exception the worst failures are with those tracks that have been left far too long to renovate and trying to get it done while only missing one spring/summer season of racing.
