Coming from Australia, the fly away, long distance events use different equipment and such. After working at several Rally Australia and Rally New Zealand events and hearing people wish that things were more like the this or that, I am motivated in ensuring that I can make my event better.

I wish we had a few organisers here that would ever even consider that some people someplace MIGHT possibly have SOMETHING to teach 'em... but alas if one ever even hints at things saying "well we've had 30-40 entries average for the last 30 years and they have 130-180 in the same time period.....we have 43% of all people who have entered an event between 2000 and 2014 do 3 events and drop out of the sport....maybe we might be able to learn something from where the National program is solid and sustainable and then examine if and how it could be applied here, maybe?"

Standard answer for 30 years "This isn't Europe, everything is different....it'll never be like it is there"

I guess they're right---since they never bother to even look---or ask....

Good on you..
What's your events you organise?

(I've poked around looking at the Oz rally scene since I've sent some of the things I manufacture down to some guys but I haven't found any central forum for all the country, mostly poked in on Brindabella forum for ACT)
