While I agree with you..... hasn't all the talk of the SMP race under lights been about the attendance needing to rise or the event will go?

The event is part of the state government Newcastle contract just as it was from 2014 part of the Homebush contract.You will notice that not once in the last 4 years has Supercars threatened to take the event away.

Just booked a houseboat in Murray Bridge for the race weekend at The Bend.

The Punters are heading for SA in 2018.

Must remember the life jackets.

Seems to be the equivalent of running Carrera Cup for just the Elite class
