If the general population follow this move (year right - Australia is turning into a country of blind consumers who see an event and then buy the t-shirt) then maybe some events will need to be re-invented.
they banned quattro in touring car racing, probably TOCA i don't think they banned quattro in rally, if they did it would be odd that all WRC cars are now awd (yes that's all quattro is, there is no magic formula contrary to what audi would have you think) . they did ban Group A in WRC after a lancia delta integrale run off the road burst into flames and killed both the driver and co driver. nobody witnessed the accident and all that was left afterwards was a burn out wreck.
