I am envious. I have a job lined up shooting the opening of a new Chapel at a private school on the Sunday and was offered 2 tickets to a corporate tent with food, booze and the whole shebang (only have to shoot a few groups and odds and sods!) but obviously can't go because of this prebooked job! Dammit..
Next year..I've put my hand up for first dibs next year!

Please post lots of Formula Ford shots John. Remember, tin tops are the racing worlds equivalent of a retirement village. Real men drive open wheel race cars
Have a blast John (and the rest of you who are going).

Dan,i am not sure but a friend is working there so he has got me a 4 day pass, now i am not sure but i no friends from Moto GP had tickets to give to 2 friends as well maybe the same sort of setup, he said i might be able to get where he is, so who knows will be a fun weekend for me anyhow.

It really doesn't matter too much what ticket you have got, it really comes down to how hard you look to find the spots, there is always so much going on, but make sure you get a pit paddock pass, thats where they keep the best grid girls for the weekend

Ok cool well BigV said he has pit pass so i will make sure i get one there. I am sure i will be able to get one there no doubt.

bbj, i thinks cheaper to either buy the pit pass before hand or buy a four day pass there, price goes up each day

Hey All,
First off; fantastic forum - great to see some locals in Adelaide. Pity its so skewed to Nikon users here. I'm heading to the Clipsal on Sunday, General Admission but must try and get into the Pit Paddock this year. Looking forward to seeing some pics from earlier this weekend.
