The Area is also famous for the dirt road connecting Wisemans Ferry and Gosford, nicknamed the "old road." This road is infamous, in that it was frequented by 2 youths who would rally a Renault Clio 1.6 - this came to a sudden end, when one of the youths, "Josho", took a corner around 80km/h and lost control almost flipping the car, his co-driver "Steve" was injured but luckly escaped with his life. From this however came a new term in Australian English - "Wisemansing it" which definition means "loosing control of an automobile and curbing the automobile at high speed". Since the incident the two youth's have had small success in both a Renault Clio and a Ford Fiesta in the half yearly Concord Rally. In early June 2007, the "Old Road" was flooded by torrential rain, and from this a small influx of keen rally drivers preparing for the Toyota Rally in South Australia, closed off a small section of the road with Local Council permission and had a half day rally event.
