ON THIS DAY: April 14


Delve into the Speedcafe.com archives and rediscover the biggest stories over the past decade which had us talking, and have gone on to help shape our sport.

In 2011 Queensland Raceway revealed it had been broken into overnight, with thieves taking a Nissan Skyline for a joyride around the track.

The raceway was one of the venues that were hit in the precinct and owner John Tetley estimated that $20,000 worth of damage had been done.

As well as the joyride, thieves broke through two sets of gates, into the track’s garages and disturbed the canteen.

Take a trip down Speedcafe.com memory lane on this day, April 14.
