Hamilton demonstrably hasn't worked - shame as in many ways it seemed like a good outcome way back at the start.

Pukekohe worked fine though - good crowds, good income etc. Based on that, if run at a permanent circuit and the deal made sense, it could all be good. I think that there are several big hurdles these days though - for example, the cars are now flown to NZ rather than taken on a ship which is quite a lot more expensive.
