It is unfortunate, as Bathurst is a huge draw card for the category, and it show cases Formula Vee racing on a stage the Vee's rarely get to perform on. Despite what people think about Vee's the category as a whole tries hard with the funds it has to put on a good show, and give something back to the competitors as well.
