Thanks for all your replies! Great to see you guys wanting to get new people (me!) into the hobby!
nitro dave: the Penrith track sounds good, but alas I am electric, shoulda specified that, and I have work tuesday nights till 8, dammit. I may try to visit some time though.
Venomworldorder: thanks dude, lots of tracks there. Geeze, in the holidays i'm going to have to do a fair bit of driving around to sus them all out! Maybe I can become a nitro convert...
ChrisO: damn nitros
Darkman: Heffron Park sounds far, us westies are afraid of the Eastern suburbs and northern beaches, its like a different country over there
There had been talk of a track at Bass Hill had there not? and the owner of Southern Cross Racing (the hobby shop at bankstown airport) was tossing up ideas of another track around there... any info on those?
