V8 Supercars Race Calendar 2010

Our V8 Supercars tickets & hotels packages for 2010 have finally taken shape. Sportsnet Holidays have really pumped up the range of V8 races we are offered this year. Traditionally Sportsnet have gone for Bathurst 1000, Clipsal 500, Hidden Valley Darwin & the Townsville 400. Last year we did the Hamilton 400, Gold Coast & Sydney plus a few customised bookings to the Abu Dahbi V8s. This year we have given the V8 Supercars travel packages a bit more grunt.

The 2010 Bathurst V8s have of course gone off & our 2009 Bathurst clients have already booked out over half of our hotels with nine months still to go! Townsville & Darwin are ticking over nicely (this year I WILL go to Townsville), however Clipsal 500 this year has been very quiet for us. Our Clipsal 500 packages are a bit more expensive than others but we have a great driver forum & other inclusions in our package, looks like we might have to re tweak the offer.

Anyway back to the main topic, this is what the starters grid is looking like for Sportsnetholidys.com V8 Supercars calendar in 2010.

Motor Sports are keeping me busy.

It been a busy time for Sportsnet Holidays favorite friends “petrol heads” of all kinds. The Bathurst 1000 has been a sold out success for us 2010. This year’s Malaysian MotoGP at Sepang was our best to date, then we sold out our Philip Island MotoGP offer and to top it off the good weather turned up and Casey burned up the track in his come back on home soil. This weekend was the Gold Coast V8 Supercars or is it the NitroGP or Surfers Paradise V8s or maybe it’s the Queensland A1GP or the Gold Coast Indy 300? Email me if you can work it out. I was offered a spot on a boat moored just off the start/finish line by my good mate John at CruiseawayHolidays.com.au but I didn’t take it (kids cricket match) as it turned out this weekend as far as thrills and spills goes was a cracker and I am kicking myself. Putting aside our flurry of last min Derby Day Packages and the 2010 Australian Open Tennis, we have Clipsal 500 out for next year, we have the Townsville 400 up which was a sell out for us last year and we have just made a big booking for the Hamilton 400 V8 in NZ today (AB take a bow). For those who like their open wheel racing and still feel let down by the whole A1GP farrago our Melbourne Grand Prix packages are getting a bit of traction so don’t spend too long thinking about it. While I can’t promise the Gold Coast grid girls or the Surfers Paradise beach front I reckon this year’s evening race format for the 2010 Australian Grand Prix will be a scorcher.
