I see. But don't you suppose the investment asked by Supercars to develop the prerequiste V6 twin-turbo Honda Accord (as Realtime Racing did for the more lucrative USA market from Acura TSX below) is excessive...

When compared to the far more reasonable cost of purchasing some ready-designed works vehicles from Honda gurus JAS Motorsport (be they NSX GT3 or Civic TCR)?

Is it not logical that Honda Australia (and other importers) therefore vote with their marketing budget to choose the (far) more cost effective category?




The cost of entering Supercars is not that much of a problem if there is a suitable ROI, but the return on investment of Supercars is seemingly rather unsatisfactory too... If it was a suitably attractive commercial proposition surely many of the importers that sell vehicles in Australia would be banging on the door to enter the Supercars series!?
