It’s a massive waste of sponsors money for a few of these categories going up there.
ARG gain goodwill and clout behind the scenes. They'll be diplomatic about it, but they can always say they saved supercars' backside.

The irony of this post.

If it wasn't for ARG/TCR, there's a fair chance there wouldn't be a Supercars B1000 at all!

The date of the TCR Bathurst was already there and allowed the opportunity for the flexibility of getting everything through.

If it wasn't for the generosity of ARG/TCR Bathurst, supercars probably had a lot fewer headaches over how they'd complete their series a conveniently as they otherwise would have.

But instead of being gracious about it, you get Mixer's post.
