You need good prizes - to make it worth while travelling to a few places and going to all the rounds.
I don't think one race is enough to gain any momentum - people at our track wouldn't care if we were having a qualifier for a big race in the future !
But If we said next meet is at Wolongong - We want as many as possible for a fun day to earn team points ! it would be some sort of an event.
At the moment its - wanna go to Moorebank for Mecca ? No way haven't got a chance on that track
