Hi,
This may be old news, but I'd not heard of it.

The Australian Government intends to phase out lead in racing fuels from 1 July 2017. With the use of leaded fuel (Avgas) being prohibited from 1 July 2019.
A petition has been established to ask for a re-think of these plans and requests that the House of Reps provide an extension of approval under section 13 of the Fuel Quality standards Act, 2000, subject to the conditions specified in section 17 of that Act or provide dispensation to preserve our motoring heritage and history.
If you want to sign this petition the link below is provided. It takes a few seconds to come up so just wait until the petition appears, then complete your details and push the sign button at the bottom. It will then ask you after that to prove you are not a robot. Then it will send an email to you, which you need to click on the link that you wish to proceed. It is easy, but a bit slow with flashing blue circles etc – just be patient.
