Agree, last year was a fat jol, just cant get that picture out my mind, that dude half way up a huge pine tree in a Borat mankini, sucking on a Hansa quart, pure awesomeness.

[Stretch]

What's the perks with the VIP pass? Backstage Access? Champers / strawberries & cream on tap?

 

Other question: I want to do some video for my own non-commercial thing, will that be okay? Or do I need to get some accreditation?

We should arrange a meet-up for a frostie or three.

[nigelhicks]

I'm trying to get a max speed for the race above 80km/h ... we got 78 last year!

Hey bro

 

I checked with Alec and he thought that it was on the site already as to what you got per pass etc ... but i now see that its not specific so i will get the guys to update it for you.

 

As far as i know the VIP pass allows the card holder into the VIP area (if i remember this has free drinks and food ... but dont quote me on this) .... but there are also VIP shaded areas on the tracks for you to go and sit on proper chairs etc. Not sure what else it does.

 

As for the filming side - i dont see that to be a problem as its a private entity and not for commercial so i dont think you'll need to be accredited. - the accreditation just allows you into the MEDIA sections of the track. As a spectator you are not allowed into the double taped areas of the track for safety reasons. If you are accreditied however you can get access to these areas.
