First of all, let me just say i was unsure where to post this for maximum effect, so mods please feel free to move as you see fit. Could be in for sale, could go in motorsport or stay here, i wasnt sure where to post myself lol.

A friend of mine has a ground floor box at brands hatch for the World superbikes on July 27th/28th, This is a non profit making exercise, its done purely so we can enjoy the weekend as much as possible. We've had this box for the last 5 years or so and its a great event and makes for an interesting weekend.

The format is as follows :-
Tickets for the whole weekend - Fri/Sat/Sun (tho box will only be open Sat & Sun)
Drinks in box free all weekend
Food in box free all weekend
VIP parking at the thistle hotel each day
Seperate toilets for box users (trust me if you've ever been to a circuit with over 100,000 fans this is a VERY appealing part!)
Ground floor box has plenty of room inside, plus has a nice large patio and grass bank to sit on, so plenty of room and space to leave your gear whilst you walk around.

The price for all the above is £250 each, not cheap i know but consider what your getting and compare that to what the same thing would be in F1 etc, you could probably add a few zero's and you'll see more overtaking in 3 laps of superbikes than in a whole season of F1!

The next part is for the real wsb fan, we also have options on the after race riders party/disco/auction bash for charity where you can get to meet, talk to, get autographs etc with the riders, price is £100 per ticket for the after race party which is strictly invite only and for that you will have some sort of cocktail reception, a meal with the riders in attendance, a charity auction - normally hosted by keith huewen (tho last year was Steve parrish as Huewen was unavailable) and a disco till circa 3am or till you fall down.

The auction is filled with interesting prizes normally, in the past i've won itesm from the castrol honda team, troy corser, colin edwards, ben bostrom, haga, chilli, walker, hodgson, foggy, mcwilliams and the entire 125 and 250cc gp grid!

So if you fancy seeing a weekend of fantastic racing in a pleasant and comfortable area drop me a line, definately something you will remember for quite a while.

Doh !!! if only i could afford this ........

Next year is a bit of an unknown quantity at the mo, from what i'm being told ducati will at the end of this year have finished the ten year agreement they placed to ride in wsb and have not confirmed one way or the other whether they will carry on.

With gp's going fourstroke and ducati competing in that, makes you wonder if there going to bother................

If wsb does wither, we'll probably move this arrangement to the bike gp's for next year, though at this stage its unknown what the format will be there.

Phill

too true, however the WSB may not live for many more years yet but there is one good thing to come from this all.....

GP race reps !!!! I'm going to me Honda dealer and putting a deposit down on the V5.....yeah i know it's a way off but whay else would they do it, especially as race results have been directly linked to euro bike sales !!!

I have not heard that about the duke's, gutted the Dukes have been kin go of the hill for years and would be sorely missed if they dont come back for more, once again they are moving into GP racing in the Moto GP class with a V4 firing like a twin with an 18k redline.

Good to see there are more two wheeling scooby freaks !!

Hi PTH, why do these things always come up when I'm skint?
Still the reason I'm broke is there's a new Aprilia RSV in my garage :-)
As Phill says, nice to see there are some other bikers here.
I'll ask my more affluent friends :-)Cheers, John

Hi Pete
Dear all
I went to this last year and trust me, it's one fecking good weekend and well worth the money!!
Excellent viewing of the main Indy circuit and a massive screen on the opposite bank to view the back section and 'Dingle Dell'
It may sound alot, but if you get there early each day to beat the trafic, you won't regret spending the money.

Me........I now have a 6 month old baby, a wife who doesn't work, no scoob and no money, but I don't regret any of it.

Have fun

Martin

How many tickets have you got?
I've been most years with my mates, but this year we've not got around to booking. I'm pretty sure we'd be interested in taking them off your hands, but I need to talk to the lads tomorrow.
BTW: We are all bikers, over 35 years of age (but not BABs), currently we have me=GSXR1000,Martin=R1,Neil=GSRX1000,Sam=R1 (oh and Sam is a geezer just in case you have any ideas!).

ptholt

I'm not to sure on exact numbers of tickets left, i know we have around 5 or so still available (box will have 30 perople or so in total).

I also had tickets for silverstone last weekend including the riders party, but everything went pear shaped at the weekend and i couldnt go and didnt get rid of the tickets DOH!

Let me know if you would like just race/box tickets only or party tickets as well, i'll confirm number of tickets available tomorrow if you need more than 5.

Pete
