But the corporates aren't 'fans' as such. For a good chunk of them the race is an inconvenient distraction that’s disrupts their socialising. They don’t go to see the race, they go to be SEEN. Its these people that spend the big dollars to attend that help to make the event viable.
Without them the event doesn’t bring in as much money and will fail. At the end of the day it all comes down to money (As long as the track is SAFE!!)
The average motorsport fan would be willing to travel a fair distance to attend the race. You don’t need to convince these people to attend.
In your own words, why is safety not an issue? I've told you why I believe it is, now you tell me why it isn’t..
And I do plan on getting to Bathurst soon. Hopefully I’ll be heading up for the 12 Hour next year. I’m in Adelaide so it’s a fair hike but it’ll be worth it.. Hopefully!
