    Hampton Downs Superbikes Round 4

    Hi all,

    Tickets are now available for the 4th round of the National Superbike Championship being held at Hampton Downs.
    Please see http://www.hdticketing.co.nz/ or contact me or any of the exec committee members http://www.amcc.org.nz/home-contact to get your hands on them.

    National Superbike Championship Round 4 Hampton Downs hosted By Auckland Motorcycle Club March 17th & 18th
    We plan on making this a full on family event, catering for the children and the wife's/partners of the petrol heads so they don’t need the weekend pass to get their speed fix.
    Family entry is $45 Mum, Dad & two children (additional children $5), Adults $25, Children under 15 free if accompanied by a fee paying adult.
    For the youngsters (Under 15's who will have free entry if accompanied by an adult) there will be a range of activities supplied by the Cambridge company 'Event Fun' they will be bringing several blow up apparatuses from surf board challenges, mazes and with any luck one of the biggest slides in the southern hemisphere. We will have a face painting artist and am negotiating with a caricaturist to attend who can produce quick drawings not only for the kids but other individual, race teams etc. The emphasis being on fun!!
    We will be having a range of craft stalls from local artists within the North Island displaying and selling their work as well as trade/dealer/accessories stands from the motorcycle industry and stands from others displaying their business's wares from specialist camera suppliers, camping gear to tool suppliers and so much more.
    A display of American muscle cars and hopefully some Hogs will be there for the public to stare deep into the chrome of and we have our fingers crossed for a certain Mr John Britten's Mobil 1 sponsored pink and purple creation to be on display as well as some other exotic creations on both two and four wheels.
    As well as the on track thrills and spills provided by some of the best riders from here and overseas in some of the closest racing we have seen in a long time we will have the North Islands very own Nic Kroeze to entertain in the lunch break showing us what is possible on a motorcycle on one wheel and the speed at which a perfectly usable tyre can be destroyed. The American muscle cars will also get to show spectators what they sound like with a couple of laps of the circuit.
    There will be food outlets and fresh coffee available from onsite caterers and access to 'Hamptons' the bar and food outlet with a panoramic view from turns one to two from its deck.


    $25 each, children under 15 free with a fee paying adult, Family of 4 $45. This is more than just a bike race meet, there is heaps to see and do, watch press and media for more details.

    Not 100% sure on the official line but for the last two years campervans and race trailers have been a popular choice in the pits. There is no obvious place to pitch a tent.

    In addition to the above blurb we also have a band playing (KEEL) Saturday evening in the Hamptons Pavilion
