    email Darren off the hamtondownsridedays he will give you the days and pricing.

    went for a walk around on Sunday far out thinking of selling the r6 and getting an R1 after seeing the size of the straights.

    heaps of room on the corners also

    still the pit lane entrance is going to be interesting

    Thats right, and the dates were 5 posts above your original question and of course it's at Hampton Fucking Downs.
    If you already had the information, why did you bother asking?

    Look at http://www.superbikeschool.com.au/ and you'll get the general idea. Cost is $429 per day if I remember correctly.

    Just to give CSS a bit of a plug. Although the cost may be quite high it would be completely wrong to compare CSS days to a track day with instructors hanging about. The CSS course is a rigorous analysis and practice of track riding techniques. Each day is a long hard day of lessons and track exercises many of which you would/could not attempt on a track day or on the road. Once learned and used the techniques will transform your riding on track and road. It is suitable for any level of rider from novice (like me) to top racer (Example: when I did level 3 I was sat in class next to Leon Camier - currently leading the British Superbike championship. I am still in touch with him. To this day he says the CSS techniques changed his riding so its not bullshit!! Thomas Luthi is another example).

    Many riders spend fortunes on faster bikes and go-faster bits and track days to improve their skills and speed. The CSS course will make any rider a better faster rider. The cost of the course is an investment in yourself which pays back every time you ride.

    I wanna go and write off a gixxer or two! How much would I be looking at for the superbike school?
    I reckon I would ride like my nana if I took my own bike to the track, can't stand to think of it getting a scratch..
    Ride fast or be last.
