I was watching a few youtube videos tonight because I have no life and after watching a few of the 1990 ones I noticed at most circuits the crowds were packed to the rafters. We have Tony Cockrane now spouting about the V8 never being healthier and that the championship was dying when the Nissans, Sierras, Volvos, Beemers and Commodore were racing each other but the footage tells another story. Admittedly the sponsors, corprates are more prevalent these days but would of the same thing happened if we kept the same formula ?

Probably none of you younguns will remember the ATCC but I remember heading out to Mallala and watching the GTR debut and the place was packed... 20deep on the mounds all round the circuit and the stands packed.

Your thoughts ?
