Will print, distribute and display.

I'll also put this link on some other forums to if i may

Edit: if i attend the meet i might take the stocker stagea due to the "sporty alternative" subject to overheating upon reading the plan is to grind city traffic to a halt...

but foley aint shit

ever since he got smacked out on his pizza crawl, hes been politically as toxic as rann (rightfully so)

Hes already said hes leving politics come next election...

He wont do shit.

But I'll still try and rock up to shove the middle finger in mike ranns face

it is the friday of clipsal, and been told that several drivers in differant classes racing on the weekend will be joining in on the protest. Foley may listen as yes he is leaving but if it goes through parliment it will piss alot of people off and that would make foley happy as a last hurrah so to speak. Turbo tom 'minister for mining and other stuff' likes his driving and is mates with foley and have been in talks about these issues

[910trx]

Be easier to bottleneck the city if the clipsal is on, half the roads are closed anyway AND the nation will be watching

[MattR]

that's it. hopefully people listen and several media will be in the area

[Krishy]

Awesome national media coverage, couldn't ask for anything better then that

[murph]

All we need is a JAF sized cruise with the route being laps of Adelaide CBD and the city would compelty stop. Im down for this

[whatsisname]

A quick reminder that the Adelaide Motorplex protest cruise is occuring tomorrow afternoon, so bear it (and the delay it will cause) in mind if you are heading into or out of the CBD and surrounds from 1730 till 2100 this afternoon/evening.

While I'm down for the cruise, having it on the weekend of the clipsal is a bad idea , only because of the traffic gridlock thats already happening...

-D

[Damo_R34]

I believe that a gridlock is the idea here

[Krishy]

shit i won't be able to make it to this one now. i am still in KI

[SLED]

I believe that a gridlock is the idea here

correct......it's the only way to stick it to these pollies (being a pain in the butt) particularly with all the petrol heads around.......they've got to pay attention

Prior to news breaking of the upcoming protest cruise during Clipsal weekend, media coverage was limited to a couple of Port Messenger articles. Look at the media interest now, multiple Adelaide Advertiser articles, and TV news coverage.

Media coverage, which the Labor Government went to great lengths to prevent not that long ago, has unearthed a split in opinion between federal and state Labor: http://www.adelaidenow.com.au/ipad/federal-state-labor-split-on-racetrack/story-fn6bqphm-1226019439222

It took similar protest action to get a positive result in NSW when drag racing identity Jim Read led a blockade protest cruise through the Sydney CBD, as a result Sydneysiders now benefit from Western Sydney International Dragway... paid for by NSW tax payers', not private investment that would fund the proposed motorplex.

[Damo_R34]

Just heard about this on Nova 919 news, getting a bit of coverage!

[Krishy]

good for the protest then. hopefully this time the politicians will listen and allow this complex to be built and give the green light
