Well i heard that Texas was down on people this year which is a shame but apparently the Shockwave was a hit which was good. The hollywood drive went real well 2 i heard, which is great.

Will Hollywood drive be at Ekka, or are there already to many Dogems at Ekka?

I don't think the Hollywood Drive will be there, It will most likely be Coney Fair's Dodgem Track at Ekka Princess.

no the hollywood drive doesnt do the ekka show i believe they would most likely preparing to head down south in the next couple of weeks...

the hollywood drive track would do real well at ekka as well, how many tracks will be at ekka, or how many was there last year?

I dont know why, but I cannot remember a dogem track being there at all, I know that is not true, but I find it so interesting that I do not recall a dogem track, I know there were two that I remember in Sydney, but unfortunately these rides are ones I have selective sight, I do not see them, or see through them, I have a zero care factor where they are concerned, but they are still and will always be very popular, I have not been on one for years, as I find them not very kind on the body, physically.

I can recall 2 tracks at EKKA: Coney Fair and Bells - I am fairly certain there was a third that has appeared the last few years but unsure whose.

The dodgems that were there are Coney fair and shorts on the grass area on the oval.
