BRC isn't any kind of competition of ERC. It's national championship and no matter how good it is it's simply a diffrent playground.
Anyway I can see the only way to wake the ERC up by changing the promoter. It's obvious that Eurosport Events/Discovery isn't intrested in rallying anymore.Stupid is as stupid does. Forrest Gump

Of course they are! But I do think there has been a 'drop off' in interest compared to 10-15-20 years ago. There's a whole raft of reasons why. But the top events do draw huge crowds....
As for the ERC - as Mirek has said, Eurosport/ Discovery don't seem interested. When was the last time there was live action??
If you want the ERC to be a stepping stone to the WRC, then you really need the same Promoter. Then they can work together to help both series; and if you must have rotation, then you could swap events between ERC/ WRC...if needed.
Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

Well, RBMH isn't doing exactly excellent job either to take on both WRC and ERC
Never stop dreaming because one day it might happen.

Money. If you want to have live, it costs some money. And sponsors are not interested in paying extra money for it. And on the other hand - lot of events needs spectators in service and stages. They are bringing them money (by tickets, selling programmes, goods etc), also sponsors are interested to see lot of spectators around the stages than "only in TV"...
