Sydney to rev up to V8 BigPond Grand Finale with Ford Superbreakfast

29/11/2004 18:54 (Press Release) - Ahead of the final round of the V8 Supercar Championship Series, the BigPond Grand Finale at Eastern Creek, Sydney race fans will get the chance to dine and chat with their favourite Ford V8 Supercar driver at the Ford V8 Superbreakfast to be held at Crowne Plaza in Parramatta on Thursday 2 December from 7.30am to 9am.

Included in the line will be Marcos Ambrose (Pirtek Racing) who will be chasing his second-straight V8 Supercar title as well as Ford's first back-to-back championship since Dick Johnson in 1988 and '89.

All 15 of Ford's officially supported drivers will be at the Parramatta Ford V8 Superbreakfast, on the eve of round #13 of the V8 Supercar Series.

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

Ford's resurgence in 2003 and now 2004 has generated plenty of interest. Due to overwhelming demand for driver appearances, Ford decided to bring everyone together for a massive pre-race function.

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

One of the highlights is an auction for a hot lap with one of the Ford V8 teams. All proceeds will go to Breast Cancer Research.

Tickets are priced at $80 (plus booking fee) and can be booked through www.Ticketek.com.au or by calling 13 19 31.
