Bowser Blues - v - Motor Park

Where are we going? With petrol at an all-time high and little chance of the price ever dropping in a significant way. There are some amongst us those who want to promote fuel usage!! They want to build a Motor Park!!!
We have people drawing our attention to societies ongoing waste of the world's resources and we have others trying the hasten the process.

Oil is a finite resource, it will never get cheaper. Availability will continue to decline and cost will continue to climb.

While a Motor Park may have had some reason for being 20 years ago, although the writing was on the wall even then, there is no rational or sustainable reason to build one today. Motor sport as we know it, is going the way of the Dodo. Until we find a cheap and viable alternative to oil/petrol, to promote motor sport borders on the criminal.

If private enterprise wishes to waste its money on such a project, so be it. But please don't waste public money on a dying industry.
