[VASC18R15R16] CrownBet Darwin SuperSprint, 15-17 June 2018

Time for the Darwin round of the year... we will be inundated with crocodile hunting, rafting, fishing and myriad alternate entertainment opportunities leading up to the series round

Who will get their mojo ticking?

888, Tickford, WP, NisMoAu... Simona?



Not long til we find out...

Isn't using leverage in marketing what gets the most out of investment in motorsport though?

Depends if these activities get stale, and suffer from wear out
Its easier to decline something if you know you can come back next year and do the exact same leverage activity...

I went in 2017 and did a whole bunch of cool things up there.
I now want to go back. Every year would suit me fine. Would take a good while for those activities to become stale.

Been doing them year round for nearly 30 years and they aren't stale yet.

Surely an oversight, it still says this on their site:

Network Ten will broadcast over 80 hours of live coverage of the 2018 championship including comprehensive highlight programs of all other Supercars rounds will run on ONE, TEN and TEN HD on Saturdays and Sundays.

A bit too busy flogging overpriced Rangers and Mustangs to focus on the racing team?

I presume Mr Bright could be coaxed back as a consultant, for a zillion dollars per day....
