I don't see the problem with the series starting overseas personally. But I do hate Yas Marina Circuit

Will be hard for GT cars to attend that are racing at the 12hr the weekend prior.
Some will decide to run in one or the other, that's if GT are on the clipsal schedule. |

Supports won't be announced until the launch, which I think I saw a tweet recently suggesting November 4th in Rundle Mall as a date.
Hopefully a decent support cast. There was a recent survey done asking about thoughts on some different suggestions such as GP2, International GT, and having one of the Clipsal legs as a Twilight Race. Would be interesting if they act on one of those suggestions. I'd certainly like to see another international category racing again at Adelaide. |

The issue with a twilight race is that most of the crowd has gone home by the time it is over. The Fujitsu series has run them in recent years.. and well.. nobody seems interested in it..
