our local racing is not all that competitive

Maybe because there are soft options?

Kooragang is way easier than Black Hill and it has been said that lots of riders, particularly in the lower grades, prefer the former for that reason.

Also, the crit course has had a few different configurations, the square in use being adopted because allegedly the higher grade riders thought the others were too hard.

So, local racing appears to be not very hard because it does not have to be.

Would one club make it easier to get people onto harder courses?  The crit circuit could be "toughened up" with perhaps less fear of losing a few punters...
