Yep, like I said needs to be packaged and marketed correctly.

You can't tell me that the average aussie motorsport fan that currently follows the V8s didn't start to get a little excited at the prospect of Brocky in his 427 Monaro taking it to the Europeans... Problem was the whole episode was handled poorly and missed the potential of what could have been...
