whowasthatberntpersson Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Standby for Pioneer Park and Brandon dates, both an hour out of Townsville. Pioneer Park is for sale but I believe it will continue operating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozpirate Posted March 15, 2005 Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 Don't Despair "Diamond Exile". Looks like you will have the opportunity to take in plenty of speedway when in Queensland. In fact, there seem to be meetings on 3 consecutive April weekends April 2 at Labrador Gold Coast - A great line-up of 16 riders from NSW and QLD is programmed. After the meeting you can begin your long trek North to catch the 2 meetings at Brandon and Pioneer Park as recently mentioned by my old Labrador Comrade now domociled in Townsville - Lee. If you'd like any further information/assistance with the April 2 meeting at the Gold Coast - please feel free to make contact.

Diamond Exile Posted March 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 Hi Ozpirate! Great news about Labrador.. can you tell me roughly how far / long of a drive it is out of Brisbane? I was hoping to spend time in Brisbane over that same weekend, so may head to Labrador if it's near enough by... I've got a map, but it's pretty large scale, so i'm only guessing that the drive isn't too bad? Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whowasthatberntpersson Posted March 15, 2005 Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 Diamond, Labrador is on the Gold Coast only a few minutes from the various attractions, Surfers Paradise, etc, and about an hours drive from Brisbane, a great little venue it is too.

ozpirate Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 As Whowasthatberntpersson has indicated, the Gold Coast Labrador track is a comfortable 1 hour's drive from Brisbane. It's a 4 lane freeway each direction which makes for a very easy, "no hassles" drive. However, if you're staying in Brisbane I'd be happy to give you a lift down and back. It should be a good meeting including Junior U16 solos during the late afternoon, followed by 20 Heats of solo action interspersed with sidecar racing. Labrador is a unique track which generally produces cracking racing. Please let me know what you decide and if I can be of any help during your time in Brisbane.
