Sadly as I feared, not a great reception.
I do wonder who on earth came up with this speedmachine idea.
But then if rallycross is only a bit part then does it matter if the place is not up to scratch. The vast majority of those targeted are not fans, they are music people, families, people with a vague interest in cars.
that is what they are hoping to attract, not the rank and file.
And it must be added how much of this is IMG and how much is Silverstone is not known.
I fear a bit of both, it's an easy sell to a sports promotion group to tell them there will be hundreds of people there who have likely never seen rallycross before, think of the marketing opportunities,.
