Funny you should say that.......
When I organised the First KB track day i concidered Pukie as a venue.
I ruled it out because.
1)track hire was $3000 (Taupo is half that even now)
2) its a frigging dangerous track and I wouldnt have a track day without at a minimum bales on the inside and outside edges of "the hill" -an added cost
3)public indemnity insurance doubles.
4)its very difficult to see therefore control entrants.
5) you need more marshals.
6) its not a track I'd be happy introducing less experienced riders to.

other costs are fixed -An ambo is an ambo be it Taupo or pukie feeding 80 people is feeding 80 people.
