G'day all,
As posted in our events calander here is some mor info on the 888 Fan Day on 4 Dec 05. Release Date: 02/11/2005 Triple Eight Race Engineering today unveiled plans for an ‘All Ford Fan Day’ at Queensland Raceway on Sunday December 4. The ‘Triple Eight All Ford Fan Day’ will include exciting V8 Supercar and road car on track activities as well as a massive display of vehicles highlighting Ford’s 80 years of Australian motoring history. Attracting family and fellowship, entry is FREE and fans will have plenty of opportunity to spend time with Team drivers Craig Lowndes and Steve Ellery, purchase Team Betta Electrical and Triple Eight merchandise and have the chance to lap Willowbank in a Team Betta Electrical Ford Falcon race car as well as Ford Falcon GT’s and XR's driven by Team drivers. Brisbane band ‘Resonate’ will perform on the day, there will be a V8 Supercar speed comparison between a Team Betta Electrical V8 Supercar, Spectrum Formula Ford, Aussie Legend race car and a Yamaha R1 road bike as well as a special kids area complete with FREE jumping castle, train, carousel and pirate ship. And if that’s not enough one lucky fan will have the chance to drive away in a Ford Fiesta LX three door manual hatch including twelve months Queensland registration courtesy of Metro Ford Brisbane! Team Principal Roland Dane said the ‘Triple Eight All Ford Fan Day’ was a way of giving something back to the loyal fans that have supported Team Betta Electrical all year. “We wanted to do something that would say thankyou to the fans that have supported us all year,” Dane said. “And what better way than providing a free day of entertainment at QLD Raceway. “By holding our Fan Day at Queensland Raceway we are able to provide an all Ford day for Ford Car Clubs and a fantastic day of non-stop entertainment for our fans. “All those who attend on the day will also have the chance to win some incredible prizes including a brand new Ford Fiesta and laps of Queensland Raceway with the team drivers,” Dane added. Craig Lowndes commended the concept as a good way to interact with fans away from a busy race meeting. “This is a fantastic team concept,” Lowndes said. “We are all so busy at race meetings we don’t always get to interact with our fans enough. “The ‘Triple Eight All Ford Fan Day’ is purely for the fans and gives them the chance to spend quality time with us in a relaxed environment where we don’t have to rush off to other commitments. As this is expected to become an annual, must do event, for all FORD fans, Diarize December 4 now! Cheers, Ken
