as someone who has been to calder park a few times in the past year (driven on it actually) and goes past it a whole heap, it is certainly not in tip top condition.
the seating and so forth is definitely overgrown with weeds/grass (thunderdome anyway)
the actual circuit track isn't too bad, its where they do the fasttrack racing and also get some motorbikes out there if you go beyond just the basic licencing.
to get it to a proper racing level work would have to be done.
and they would have to link up the old circuit which ran both tracks for extra length.
right now you get say 8 cars out there for a fast track day and its fairly packed in. think Nascar short track. now add in all the other v8s.
for the record reap. the land next to it is actually going to be made into a train storage place.
or atleast that is the plan.
pretty sure they do not use the thunderdome anymore, unless you want to hire it out.
from memory it works out to about $10k to hire it for a day.
used to be for fasttrack experiences in aus/nascar but do not think that has happened for a while.
oh and they sometimes also have some motorbike events there, fair size track out the back.
