I would say a definate no to that!
Remembering that for most TRS teams it is a business they are running. Yes it is successful for them but i dont think it would work for the majority of any other classes.
Take out the top echelon of competitors, how many could afford to do 5 or 6 weekends of Motorsport in a row, as well as travel the length of the country. And I dont mean just financial wise, its the time off work or away from their businesses for travel plus car prep time etc etc, its basically full time for 6 weeks...plus there is the toll on man & machinery.
And aside to all that, there are a great number of Kiwi competitors who enjoy a family summer break & actually prefer to race at other times of the year.
