And Cadwell wouldn't have been a millstone?

Maybe I'm just cynical, but I had zero faith in their financial competence then......and little more now.

Cadwell could have incurred crippling overheads even worse than Allen House without zealous management. Owning a racetrack is not a road to riches as Rockingham showed and I doubt VMCC would have had the resources or acumen to secure the likes of BSB to garner sufficient income.

As is often said, other opinions are available.
