Holden and Ford are also cutting back on support due to hardships in their primary business. Neither of those wouldve been influenced by any stability or instability from the V8's commercial side.

I beg to differ if it was really worth it they would of kept marketing...so a race dedicated to v8 powerd large cars in todays market just doesnt make sense.
And ill quote neil crompton "If an advertiser of that size can leave the catigory might not be as healthy as we have previously thought" and while we are seeing record money being spent we also have teams in more and more debt australia doesnt have a market for this kind of racing and its a victum of its own sucsess.
We have a big market but even if we had every aussie watching we would still have less then a 1/4 of germanys population.
