New Party to contest ACT Election

That last post should have started with the quote

.. example.. GDE 1 lane either way WTF!

i’ve not been having much luck with the html coding lately

is there a straight section long enough for drags? it has a wall down the middle and is closer then western sydney.

policies could include no speed limits anywhere (including around schools), free rego, abolition of injury insurance, every road to become a drag strip, removal of speed and red light cameras and shutting down ACTION.

From the ‘motoring enthusiasts’ I see regularly doing burnouts opposite my house, I wouldn’t expect a quantum leap in IQ just yet.

This party could be planting in fertile soil. There are a whole range of motoring related gripes the current mob seem to have no interest in addressing. The one lane GDE has already been mentioned. Add in the Majura Lane/Airport/Monaro Highway fiasco, the Tharwa Drive/Monaro Highway disaster (where the plod goes out of it’s way to book motorists trying to avoid the bottleneck), the policy of reducing parking to force increased bus useage, the promotion of pushbike riding to appease a small minority, revenue raising speed cameras, and my favourite, the ripoff that is 3rd party insurance. This list is certainly less than complete.
And yes, we should have a Dragway/motor sport complex in Majura.
If the candidates put forward by the party are of similar calibre to the original clever gents who built the original dragway from nothing into a well conducted venue, we may certainly be introducing a quantum leap in IQ to the assembly.
I wish them well.

Humans rights are a wanky time for the ACT considering it can get canned by the Feds so it is a wanky waste of time…

VY – Human rights are wanky time and resource wasting crapola?

I disagree, and so I think would the millions of people who have theirs denied.

Not a single isssue party – but just had to call its self the “Australian Motorists Party”.

Well, Mick Gentleman got voted in on a single issue, and he’s getting paid a shiteload to sit around and do stuff all. Let’s all get on the bandwagon, eh?

ant: what an excellently informed opinion – there is no dragway at goulburn, there is only the track, which occasionally runs 1/8th mile drags on the main straight, which last time i was there was one car at a time, it also has no walls, no proper drag racing surface.

The nearest track is Western Sydney, and for the most part street cars are only really run on wednesday nights, so to actually have a run you need to take a day off work and drive 600km + racing.

I think there’s a bunch of motoring issues that should be sorted in the ACT, and there’s a hell of a lot of room for people in govt who actually know what they are talking about.. example.. GDE 1 lane either way WTF!

I think anyone that steps up with some sensible, useful policies instead of blowing hot air about human rights, statues, gay marriage and other wanky, time and resource wasting crapola, will stand a serious chance. Besides, if we stop paying for all this other horsepoo, theres probably money for a dragway anyway!
