Doesnt seem to be another event running already before the B1000 they can just add a day to, like the BMW crowd did..

It requires government gazetting doesnt it, for a separate event. And approval from state & local government. And filling the support crew roster for officials & medical.

Or are we going to see this on Wednesday of Bathurst week

Why is it that Michelin or Pirelli can just pop up with their world GT tyre & just br on it, with no failures of note?
Of course in the late eighties and early nineties the Tooheys 1000 launch day at Bathurst doubled as a tyre test.

Although it didn't always work out for some teams.
