Hi all sorry to interupt your discussion on countersteering kneedragging in top gear at 4000rpm, but could some one tell me the date of the Australian round of the 500cc world championship, at Eastern Creek Also I would like some idea of ticket costs etc.
Hi Mike.T,

The race weekend is the 24th, 25th and 26th of March, with the actual race day being the 26th.

A Pitt Straight Grand Stand pass (3 day) is $175.

A 3 day season pass (which means you can't sit in the grand stand) is $80.

Day passes are:

The Grand Stand is probably the place to be if you have the dollars, I assume you get a good view of most of the track from there. I was just at the track side last year and although it was great you do miss a lot of the action. You either get close to the track and only see certain sections, or you stand back up on one of the hills and see more of the track, but from quite a distance.

I spent a lot of time just out of the last corner coming onto the straight - do those 500cc boys know how to powerslide!

Who else is thinking about going?

Mike.
