Bathurst 24 Hour - how well known is it in Europe?
Just wondering how well known the Bathurst 24 Hour race is in Europe? Does anyone know of any teams looking at entering? I think Cirtek and the British Rollcentre Moslers are returning

I thought the Bathurst was a race for touring cars?

We had it on Motors TV and Eurosport, so it got decent coverage. I'm sure European appreciation will improve. It's on during the right time of year and the warmth of the Australian racing welcome is reknown.
It could probably do with some proper promotion via the SRO to get on some of the FIA team's itinery. Are them some other races they could do en route? |

Don't know much about the 24hours race but the 1000 is/was shown here on (I think) Eurosport and on BBC (before they lost all the carportscontracts... ;-) )

The Tech 9 Posche team plan to run this year and I wouldn't be at all surprised to see a Morgan there as well. I'm pretty certain you'll see a Mosler again and I'd be optimistic about a TVR too.
