INTRODUCTION:
The grove is too small. I add, the Salzburgring generates 3 million euros in turnover from events and local tourism, overcrowding, catering food is once as much.
Slovenia is not taking advantage of the attractiveness of the motor-moto scene and the demand for new programmes from foreign event organisers.
 
For a relatively good idea, take a look at the new NDA Navak in Serbia, the Euroring at Madzarski im Salzburgring.
 
We are talking about organising events for cars, motorbikes, go-karts, vintage cars, renting out the track, renting out the pits, offering local cuisine, overnight stays, tourism related to motor sport.
Driving training for private and commercial vehicles, transporters, buses, trucks.
 
THE PROBLEM IS YOU ARE ALL JUST GETTING OUT OF LOCAL RACING - Every European country has at least one track, one well-known track, several smaller ones and some test tracks.
The only argument against it is the noise and the emissions, yeah fuck the road no. But not elsewhere? Look at the way tourism is going alongside these programmes, from glamping, camping, wellness, hoteliering, if it is for the common good.
 
-- You make noise every day with tractors, zags, milling machines, practically rattling nonstop, and then you go on about noise that you don't even know about and that would be 2-3 km away and would bring tourism to you. And how narrow-minded you must be not to see it. -- ______________________________________________________________________________
 
The location in Prekmurje next to, say, EXPANO, is from a logistic point of view:
FOCUS - ATTRACTING FOREIGNERS, FOREIGN ORGANISERS
1. Very close to the Croatian, Hungarian, Austrian borders
- Direct proximity for holidays, weekend packages for foreigners, camping option at Soboski lake, plaza - there is a lot of untapped potential.
2. With a multi-purpose track, tourism, catering, hotel and wellness, and catering can be promoted. Home-made delicacies along the route, pottery, exhibitions, bathing, camping.
3. Recruitment of local entrepreneurs, vulcanisers, repairers, DECENTRALISATION !
4. Prekmurans are more enthusiastic and need something distinctive and revolutionary.
5. At the very end, a local tourist drive can be offered alongside foreign business and strategic goals. Examples:
Full-day pass, half-day pass, After-Work driving or Stinti.
6. Visibility through social media, on-route filming of media his, broadcasts, etc.
 
For more information, I am at your disposal. I repeat, not to be inspired by Bahrain, but NAVAK, Euroring, JARAMA, Zandvoort, Estoril approx. 4km suitable for all types of vehicles, all-round.
 
Also look at how people are making a living from tourism because of the routes.
I am giving a picture, as an example.
 
Money is being thrown at European projects that are just a waste and never pay off. Meanwhile, motor sport in Slovenia is practically non-existent and unrecognisable, or non-existent at all, and is proven throughout Europe to bring in a lot of money if it is properly organised. ORGANISATION is everything, but it is also important to realise that you get far slowly, but you have to start as soon as possible.
If such a project is one day really going to be set up, do not forget to put in enough boxes and electric charging stations, because that will be the future.
 
There are manufacturers of such charging stations who will be happy to co-finance the matter if asked.

Some further interesting information:
1. Bilster Berg in Germany generates a turnover of 5 million euros and a profit of just under a million
(Die wirtschaftliche Entwicklung ist sehr positiv, wir wachsen... machte der Bilster Berg in 2019 einen Umsatz von 5,3 Millionen und einen Gewinn von 822.000 Euro.)
2. The Salzburgring does not even host F1 races or anything else, the track itself generates 3 Mio traffic and has the intention to cheese itself, directly connected services in the Region generate an additional 2 Mio traffic
(... "Der Salzburgring macht aktuell bis zu drei Millionen Umsatz pro Jahr. Alleine mit Teststrecken und Schulungsfahrten lässt sich dieser noch steigern...)
3. The Nürburgring and the Region broke the 100 million traffic mark last year and created many new jobs in the surrounding area, direct services, rent a car, coaching, service etc. museum
 
It is impossible to ignore that things are being invested in, developed and countries like Serbia, Croatia are also working on visibility. Only Slovenia is not able to do it or to start somewhere.
It is a little less necessary to please the various individuals who have everything up their noses and to change the mentality of the local communities and to inform them correctly about the positive things that the matter is bringing about for the Region as such, which is, let us say, dying out.
 
The current situation results in
1. Slovenia is not visible in the Auto-Moto sport practically anywhere, not even in the low-tier
2. Foreigners cannot be invited and companies like Akrapovic are testing at the other end of Europe
3. We have a REVOZ and a potential vehicle testing partner, if developed and negotiated properly
4. It is much quicker to create visibility in times of social doldrums like today than it was 20-30 years ago. It would be a pity to miss the opportunity to jump on this train, finally after 30 years of independence.
 
Sometimes you have to bite the bitter apple, ignore a few local peculiarities, take a different approach to the solution, stop yammering and see only the obstacles. The same obstacles are everywhere in Europe, yet the Serbs are putting up a Driving Academy, the Croatians are renovating Grobnik, and the Hungarians did not even put up the 1996 Pannonia Ring and the Euroring for decoration. And these are roughly countries with lower average wages.
