Chance To Win Hot Lap Of Barbagallo At Ford V8 Superbreakfast

21/5/2004 20:13 (Press Release) - Attendees of the Ford V8 Superbreakfast at Perth's Hyatt Regency on Thursday 10 June will have the chance to win the ride of their life aboard the Super Cheap Auto Racing Falcon of Steve Ellery.

One of the bright stars of V8 Supercar racing, Ellery last year took second place at Sandown as well as third at the biggest race of them all, Bathurst.

The hot lap with Ellery will be the auction prize, with all proceeds going to Ford Racing's 2004 nominated charity, Breast Cancer research.

Perth race fans will get the chance to dine and chat with their favourite Ford V8 Supercar driver at the second annual Ford V8 Superbreakfast to be held at the Hyatt Regency on Thursday 10 June from 7.30am to 9am.

All 15 of Ford's officially supported drivers will be at the Perth Ford V8 Superbreakfast, on the eve of round #5 of the V8 Supercar Series at Barbagallo Raceway on from June 11-13.

2003 was one of the Blue Oval's most successful years on record, with championship trophies going to Marcos Ambrose, Pirtek Racing and Ford.

Ambrose scored six of Ford's nine victories in 2003, including a popular win at Barbagallo Raceway.

Ford's resurgence in 2003 has generated plenty of interest. Due to overwhelming demand for driver appearances, Ford decided to bring everyone together for a massive pre-race function.

Last year's Perth V8 Superbreakfast was a sell-out, so fans are advised to get in early.

The Ford V8 Superbreakfast includes exclusive driver interviews, live show entertainment, highlights of the 2004 season, special gifts and giveaways.

One of the highlights of the event is an auction for a hot lap in a Ford V8 Supercar, as well as a separate raffle with lots of great prizes. All proceeds will go to Breast Cancer Research.

Tickets are priced at $80 and can be booked through BOCS Ticketing at www.bocsticketing.com.au or 1800 193 300.
