Best seat trackside will sit one lucky winner in the hot seat

One lucky grandstand ticket holder will have the ultimate V8 Supercars experience and go for a high speed ride around one of Queensland's trickiest street circuits at the Castrol Townsville 500, from July 4-6.

Those who purchase either a Gold or Platinum grandstand will have the chance to sit in the hot seat beside 2013 Gold Coast 600 winner and larrikin David Reynolds as he takes them for a spin in his Bottle-O Racing Team V8 Supercar.

The ultimate high octane experience, which is very rare to come by, is available to anyone who purchases a Gold or Platinum Grandstand ticket prior to July 2 and is drawn as the winner.*

The Bottle-O Racing Team driver said he was looking forward to taking the winner for a spin.

"Taking people for a hot lap is always fun and the Townsville circuit is a great track for it," said Reynolds.

"I love hearing people's reactions, it is a really cool opportunity that a lot of people would do anything for to have the chance.

"Townsville is a great event, it's a great circuit, great racing and there are great seats to watch all the racing."

This year's Castrol Townsville 500 will showcase a new event precinct including new grandstands that are purpose built for the avid race fan to enjoy the action in their own secure seat.

Conveniently located near food stalls, bars and toilets, race goers won't miss any of the on-track entertainment and will also have access to the Saturday night post-race concert with Jessica Mauboy and Vanessa Amorosi.

There are five grandstands to choose from with ample on-track viewing from the Turn 11 Hairpin, Turn 12 or down the main straight, plus a clear sight to Big Screens. The Gold and Platinum grandstands are the best seats trackside.

Grandstand seats are still available for three days of V8 Supercars action at the Castrol Townsville 500, running July 4-6, here.

*Flights and accommodation not included in prize. Tickets must be purchased via Ticketek prior to July 02 2014 to go into the draw.
