Very true, as with all large orgs with breaucrats!
But hopefully the ERC planners see that it is better to start out small, and with full entrylists, and build reputation, and then grow once the european title mean something.
Privat Teams should use ERC as a stepping stone for WRC, to learn the "trade"!
Cost must down, and they need to attract "Nordic" teams and drivers, that as of today see ERC as a waste of time and money!

You´re absolutely right! Maybe with the new Winter Cup there´s some more attraction for Nordic teams and drivers.
Re: 2013 Lessons identified
I share Your hopes. Now three pure winter events are planned (with possible snow in fourth - Valais if that is run in it's November date). There will be also Estonia as a new gravel round. It could take attention of some Nordic teams and I strongly hope so.
