Yes DW I,d rather Gollob,Pedersen,Crump etc were there! I suppose they could have changed the date to a non GP weekend and invited sponsors to pay them.
Yes the line up does pale when you look at previous winners since 1928. Maybe its a reminder of the Knife edge our sport is surviving on in 2011.
Must admit not to have Joe & James,with a very good chance of winning it, in the field is disappointing for potential Tigers fans and gate money !
Of course Tigers have more important fixtures this weekend and good luck to them.
Well apart from Sunday
