There's no hope if it's a pool or even if it isn't, because the TABs will want in excess of 15% rake from the "pool" making it uncompetitive by comparison to Betfair prices.

P.S. In the good old days, your Holden Special didn't concertina itself around a telephone pole requiring the occupant to be cut out with the jaws of life, or split into two sections. It was also built to last more than five years and had more than triple the layers of paint they scrimp on today.
Sure it can absorb most of the impact, but this is only effective in certain types of accidents. You knew in a rollover for example, the roof wouldn't crush down to seat level.
