Not just those.... in my lifetime, I have seen the departure of a number of manufacturers, including Toyota, Mitsubishi (Chrysler), and Renault, and that's just the ones I can remember right now. That Ford no longer builds it's own cars here, and Holden no longer exists, is a travesty borne out of the Lima Agreement (look it up), and a national disgrace.

Trust me, you don't want that. Take it from someone in a country where there used to be a number of mainstream manufacturers.... but now there are NONE.
Sorry, the whole bit was being sarcastic, well except for the canning part of designers whos' vision is disgust.

My dusty little oval track can't compete with that majestic sunset, but here it is anyway. I found this by accident. It is in a city park about 30 minutes away. It's not Whippoorwill, obviously, but pretty sweet for a free public area. The photo doesn't show it, but the corners are slightly banked. There is a water spicket conveniently close, so I will add a water hose to my race kit.

Very nice indeed! That's a proper track.

When I sold my previous house, I saved this aerial photo from the real estate listing :lol: I should have sold it in the summer so the grass would be greener and the photo better, but you get the idea. :D

Trying to get rid of my old scooter at the end of the road and accidentally took a picture of a 90s cd cover. Luckily, Bob had my 6.
