Miller Marquee - R650.00 - Standard, R1,500 VIP, R2,500 - VVIP

As much as I have tried to in the pas there is no was I can drink anywhere near R500 worth of Free Miller (at cost) from 11am till 5pm and still eat on top of that.

The point is, you pay for the experience and the experience is awesome! I just wish they were placed a bit better on the track. The tent is at the entrance to the straight.

Yes Titch but being part of Discovery, I get discounts on the movies... ;) ... Its called value added services

Punters/Owners are the lifeline of this industry yet they get fark all back from the operator, there should be some sort of loyalty programme imo, something like if you have attended 10 Greyville meets throughout the year you get 50% discount on entry to the July. Plenty more this is just off the top of my head...

The other day I got a email from Phumelela about fnb deposits via your mobile... I found the email so impersonal, NO Dear Greg OR As a Valued Customer, just straight to the point about making deposits... (:P)

Fark you Phumelela, i will continue to boycott you bunch!!!
