(Doubt I'll do the crossed out ones)
I get three tickets; though have to use one ticket myself.
Two other tickets are for my 'pit crew' as such.
If anyone's interested in coming along and lending a hand, I'd be interested to hear.
Tickets would normally bit over a tenner I think. You get to see a day or two's racing, some of which should be pretty close and exciting stuff... and a bit more 'real' than motogp etc.
Also don't get the crowds of the internation races, so spectating is much less hassle.
Ideally I would be looking for people to help the whole weekend and maybe the practice day as well, though I'm not expecting too much . Would have to look at accomadations, shouldn't be too bad in summer at least.
Free T-shirts or similar to those that do it. I'm sure I can also rustle up some food and the like to help compensate for your time.
Obviously I would give priority to those that can spanner, take pics, or that I know who want to do it etc. Obviously I aint going to complain if you're the only person offering, even if you've never touched a padock stand before, but hope you can understand that as I only get two tickets, those that can help me more will take priority.
Main things would be stuff like getting tyre warmers on and off, refueling bike etc. Taking it through scrutineering maybe.
This isn't just me saying it; in one of the classroom sessions today they did mention that it's best to try and get others to do most of such stuff, so you can be more focused on riding the bike where possible.
So, anyone interested? |

I wouldn't mind helping out a few times if you get stuck. I'm not the most competent person round a bike (which you'll know from my thread earlier ) but I am learning! I can aso take decent photos! I can't guarantee any dates at the moment, but bear me in mind.
You live in Reading (I think) which isn't too far from me either (Oxford). |

As you are aware I'm not the most mechanically minded but I can swing a mallet, and push !!!
And also drive a camera fairly well.
I'm certainly available for the Snett/Lydden/Brands events, even if you don't have a space for me under the 'pit ticket' I'm happy to pay and spectate/support and take pics.
(Will also be interesting to see how all this works, you never know next year.... )

Likewise, not that mechanically adept, but always willing to help. Good with a camcorder.
Will be coming along to some anyway, as I suspect a fair number of people will be. |

Don't let us down GGG (at least finish the race in one piece!) |

I'll offer tea making services, light spannering and, erm, I could hold an umberella whilst taking photos
If you've got a weekend when you're short of people, let me know I'd love to help out ____________________ Avast! Pirates ahoy!

Thanks for the response all .
Should be able to get people into the pits even if I can't get you a free ticket, so the more the merrier .
As I mentioned, the price for the ticket is pretty good value anyway .
Ideally I'd be hoping for people to at least be there from Friday evening to my last race on Sunday. No problems if not.
So, who's interested in coming to Snetterton on the 12/13th of March?
This is presuming I do get a grid position of course!
I'm presuming they'll increase the number of races for the first weekend, as I suspect the rookie 600 class will be /very/ full. |

I'll have to see when I'm free closer to each race, I know one end of a spanner from another, and I can cope with the anti Triumph jokes...
And I think I can use a camera, never tried taking any decent bike pics though I have to say...
Oh, and I know how to use cable ties! ____________________ British beauty: Triumph Street Triple R; Loony stroker: KR1S; Track fun: GSXR750 L1; Commuter Missile: GSX-S1000F

Not much use in the pits but i'll come along to the cadwell ones, the other ones are just too damn far . You need to do some more up north. I'd be interested to see how it all works!
