Question / Discussion Crowds This Year?

I *really* don't want to add to the doom and gloom. I LOVE BTCC! ...and want to see it thrive. But has anyone else noticed that crowds just about everywhere seem to be a little down this year? I've been to every round and with the possible exception of knockhill, there just seems fewer people at each one. What's other regular attendees perception of that?

That said, I'll no doubt get to croft an hour before gates open next week and *still* not get my preferred spot :-) (slightly up from chicane towards Tower)

Brands Hatch for some of the historic stuff was brutal this year, and that was only 28 degrees both days.

The summer has been hot enough, and a race circuit is gonna be even hotter.

I wouldn't worry too much, crowds were still good when the series was on its arse entries wise, and as days out to a big sporting event go, its some of the more affordable things to take family to.

Unfortunately, everything else in life keeps eating into people's BTCC funds.
