Nothing will happen, nothing ever happens.

EC never brings a crowd. Never has. Likely never will.

In a city where NRL football clubs are ecstatic when the crowd hits 5,000 on match day, the numbers bandied about for the EC crowd are acceptable rather than spectacular.

Sydneysiders dont go to outdoor events. Its that simple. Bathurst has the capacity for 100,000 people theoreticlaly, yet the numbers rarely exceed 40,000.

Something is up somewhere, and I would have assumed some of these hideously expensive marketing types would discover the root cause in research and customer surveys.

Or am I being too logical again?

Shoot, if you could squeeze 100,000 into Bathurst there'd be a slight queue for the loo...

If there was the demand for the loo with 100,000 patrons, they would build or rent more loos....

Its chicken and egg, the facilities stay junk because there are no patrons, and anecdotally there are no patrons because the facilities are junk...

TSR has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
True in what you say GTR, but what about Oran Park were they get between 35-40,000 at the v8 supertaxi race

Bathurst council builds new loos one week later the patrons turn them to junk.
