No way you can double the entries for the support events at the 12hr, they are at circuit capacity already. It may have some effect on the 12hr event though where more start6ers would help.
The loss of FOSC though is possibly an area where circuit hire costs were the fly in the ointment. Was that the direct reason? Did other factors come into play? What were potential entries looking like before the plug was pulled?
The point about Mt.Panorama is its iconic status. As Jacal said, even at that cost he would do it again. Is the whole thing a matter of fixing a price point because there are so many people who want some laps that the promoters can charge whatever the market will bear?
