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.

Clipsal 500 Adelaide
Desert 400 Bahrain

Spring into action
September always heralds a period of madness in the sports travel business as it means we literally spring into action and it rarely pauses until after the Australian F1 Grand Prix in late summer.
September means footy finals and we have huge numbers for the AFL Grand Final packages and NRL Grand Final packages. There are a few late nights coming up with last minute bookings as fans realize their team is going to get there and as we assemble hundreds of travel packs with grand final tickets, hotels documents and various other goodies while organizing our Sportsnet functions and speakers.
As that one day in September (or early October) passed for both codes there is no time to take a breather as hard on the heels of footy is the Philip Island Moto GP event and the Bathurst V8 races. Both events have something challenging in common for a sports travel company. They are in the country; there is limited accommodation and huge demand. We had booked out most of our top flight accommodation in and around both events months ago. No matter how hard you want to please the fans, at this time of year you are either staying up in Melbourne and transferring down to the track or looking at dorm accommodation around Bathurst for the Mount Panorama races. That all said it never seems to distract the fans from the enjoying what they really came for the sights, sounds and smell of motor sports.
