Matty, While I believe that NETZ is being manipulated, I'm equally sure that we won't see much price appreciation til after the first of the year. Not only do we have the wash rule effect, there is also the tax consequences for this time of year. Even the institutions are paring down their holdings for tax purposes. AVBC had a very nice press release today and volume up slightly, but, no real jump. ACCY's announcement of Jack Nicklaus playing in the tourney last Thursday has caused a massive runnup of TWO CENTS!! <g> I suspect things will be a little slow for most securities until after the holidays. I'd also be willing to bet that there will be some fairly big accumulation of NETZ in January. Lots of variables to be sure, but, my gut tells me to buy more now eventhough my wallet says outa luck! <G> JMHO. Theo

Ronald I. Meatchum.....Part 3 * * * THE former BMW Australia managing director, Mr Ron Meatchem, has been asked to become the chairman of TEGA, the organisation representing the top V8 touring car teams. The move is ironic considering Mr Meatchem was the motivating force behind the creation of rival group TOCA Australia (with 2-litre cars). He once described the V8s as "dinosaurs" Publication.: ADVERTISER Date........: Thu 08-Aug-1996 Edition.....: METRO Page........: 26 Column......: motoring Headline....: V8 touring car job for Meatchem Type........: features Keywords....: sa Biog........: MEATCHEM RON Text................................................................: RON Meatchem, one of the prime-movers in establishing two-litre touring car racing in Australia, has been appointed chairman of the five-litre, V8 category of touring car racing. Mr Meatchem, managing director of BMW Australia before his retirement three years ago, set up BMW's racing program in Australia and also served on the motor racing executive committee of the Confederation of Australian Motor Sport. He will take up his post as chairman of Touring Car Entrants' Group Australia (TEGA) immediately, guiding the group towards its two major long distance events of the year, Sandown 500 and Bathurst 1000. Member......: 2 Publication.: ADVERTISER Date........: Thu 31-Oct-1996 Edition.....: STATE Page........: 37 Headline....: 'Rebels' have immediate impact on Bathurst Byline......: By BOB JENNINGS Type........: sport Keywords....: nsw Libhead.....: Motor car racing - Australia Text................................................................: A new structure for Australian V8 touring car racing was announced yesterday, with no sign that the dispute over Bathurst had been resolved. The International Management Group has become a partner in running V8 touring cars with the Touringcar Entrants Group of Australia. Their joint company ~ Australian Vee-eight Super Car Company ~ will be known as AVESCO. The company, which also announced an agreement with Network 10, reached an immediate impasse, insisting that Channel 10 should have the rights to telecast the annual October Bathurst race. Channel 7, however, part of the consortium which runs the October race and which includes the Australian Racing Drivers' Club and the Bathurst City Council, has a contract to telecast the race until 2004. The vice-president of IMG Australia, Tony Cochrane, said he hoped the five-litre cars would be racing at Bathurst next October but AVESCO would be asking the Bathurst consortium for $750,000 for the appearance of the touring car teams in addition to Channel 10 gaining the telecast rights. If an arrangement is not reached it is expected the Bathurst consortium will promote a touring-car race for international two-litre touring cars ~ which ran at the track as a supporting event this year ~ with local numbers possibly being boosted by teams from Japan, the US and the UK. The alternative for the consortium is to once again make the race open to five-litre cars, attempt to attract breakaway teams and privateers and rely on sponsor pressure for teams to appear in the 100km race, which is Australia's major motor sport event outside the Formula One Grand Prix. AVESCO chairman Ron Meatchem ~ formerly managing director of BMW Australia and at one time a major proponent of two-litre racing ~ said AVESCO would take the sport and its sponsors into a ''very bright and profitable future''. AVESCO, however, has not found a venue for its rebel race and the calendar revealed yesterday only has a provisional race scheduled for October 5 at a track still to be nominated. The 17-race calendar of next year's touring car races included 10 touring car championship races in addition to the supporting events at the Formula One Grand Prix in Melbourne in March and the IndyCar race at Surfers Paradise on April 6. There are two events in New Zealand, which at this stage are listed as being provisional. The touring car championship will begin at Calder Raceway in Victoria on March 2 and will include the ninth round at Mallala on July 6. Next year's IndyCar Grand Prix is part of an expanded 18-race IndyCar schedule. The Australian race will be the second round of the championship and be held on the weekend after Easter ~ about a month clear of the Formula One race next year. There was more on the site...... But you get the general idea. The Boogieman
