Does any have, or know of, a list of all Aussie tracks, with circumferences, and lengths of straights,etc.

Before I do it myself, I'm hoping someone has been there/done that already

The skychannel website has pictures of the courses in use each day, with start positions and lengths of straights....

Have you seen the track reviews (Metro) on the PROPUN homepage?

yes, I've seen them.
I've got most tracks apart from a couple in WA(albany, Mount Barker and pinjarra).
been to Racing HQ website in WA, done google searches, etc- no luck yet.

Thanks KV,
I'm nearing the end of my search.
I'm gunna compile a spreadhseet, so, each raceday I can search each venue and know what the hell each runner is competing against- eg- barrier 9 at Yarra Glen over 1200 doesn't look too promising, especially when referring to this:
