Mays had previously told ProPrint the Race Day was intended to “get the camaraderie back” in the local industry. He reported that the event provided attendees a chance to relax and socialise after the tough conditions of recent memory.

He said that the association would now look at making the Race Day an annual event.

“We’ve already had people wanting to commit to it for next year,” he said.

Mays added that the event also provided a boost in membership numbers, which he said would help the association provide discounted events in the future.

“The LIA is back in Queensland,” he said.
