[quote=Armco Bender]Why was there another major meeting at Pukekohe on the same day as the A1?..

Because Auckland wants the A1GP to go to Hampton Downs & they are prepared to sabotage A1GP Taupo do get it. You'd think that Motorsport NZ would control this conflict better & sure enough the Pukekohe permit was issued on the assurance that it wasn't going to be a major event. Since when has a 35 car Formula 5000 race not been major? The cart is leading the horse in NZ motorsport.
