The Final Visit to Flemington Speedway
Some will say the end
occurred when the final race was held a few years ago. Many will tell you that
the end of Flemington Speedway began when the checkered flag waved on the final
dirt race in 1990.
We all knew it was over... even the most optimistic knew the area no longer
wanted her.
But as illogical as it seemed, there was something about the majestic grandstand
that remained standing through it all... Something that wouldn't let many of us
accept the obvious... the inevitable.
The Grandstand is now gone. It was the last to go. And with that, we have made our last visit and have said goodbye.

"Angling out of 4"
"Down the front."
"Into 1 they go..."
Grandstands, Crows Nest, Catwalk... Decades
of Memories.
"Last piece standing..."
Minutes later...
...and it becomes a memory too.
They removed the steel... They'll remove the
blocks... But they'll never get our memories.
Relieved of duty, the tower will stand guard
no more.
The lights are out at Flemington..
