Interesting Post............There is a load of good points raised above.
Ultimatly is it not down to what your perception of entertainment is & where your interests lie?
Personaly I chose not to compete at TOTB this year as i dont see the appeal in watching an RST when I could be watching a Cossie/Evo/Supra/Skyline Viper etc competing.
Which validates James point about Competition and Steves point about what Id personaly like to see.
I appreciate from Chris's point of view that the event has to create revenue and the best way to ensure/only way to ensure this is the big crown pleasers.
Ranj from a potential competitors point of view am 100% with you, the risk factors/potential budget that needs set aside for the 1 day for an individual is ludicrous.....competition at what cos£.
So the Best get Better and Better the cars become faster and faster then the marques fewer and fewer.......and then what happened?
I guess that this post was prompted by a similar thought!
