    It's a great track. You're going to love it. When I went, I wanted the Bass Straight Grandstand, but it was booked out, so got Siberia instead. Still a good spot, but Bass is slightly better in my opinion. You can see a fair bit of the circuit from there.

    You own a Fireblade, you could join Honda Riders club NZ and go with them.
    Check first that they aren't fully booked, and time is marching on...

    It costs more but everything is organised, they feed you like a battery hen and have a grandstand trackside at the end of the main straight. Pit walks, a marquee, TVs, bar facilities, toilets, scoreboard sized screen just across the track etc etc. Basically everything is paid for except alcoholic drinks. I've been with HRC twice and would gladly do it again. In fact I'm starting to think about going to Superbikes with them.

    Of course, if you do join you get a 24/7 breakdown service as bart of the deal...

    I went a couple of years ago - absolutely awesome - you're gonna love it. The sound, the speed is unbelievable. You'll end up walking around the track and watch where there is space to park your arse. Have fun the atmosphere is brilliant

    Was there in 2006 and 2007 watched from Lukey Heights awesome weekend. This year I am trying out Siberia. If there is anybody going who has hired a bike or who knows somebody who is going on a bike can they please pm me. I have free motorcycle park tickets for the three days. They were part of an early bird deal. I will not need them as I am on the bus.
    Please sir I would like some more
