Can you imagine what would happen to the top level of the sport if there was nothing below it??
Anyways, why do government's spend money in street races? For one, it is a big ad for which ever city the race is in. Secondly, they hear events like Indy and the AGP bringing in $X million dollars to the community.
But how about Eastern Creek, Hidden Valley, Queensland Raceway, and now Lakeside. They have all had government input at various levels, and with various amounts of success.
I hope and pray that they don't ditch Winton....after they have done everything possible to keep the show in town, by spending $$$$$$$...
