BP-Ford World Rally Star Marcus Grönholm will visit the Gold Coast Indy event as part of preparations for Rally Australia in Perth.
The winner of five World Rally Championship rounds so far in 2006, including last weekend's rally of Turkey, Gronholm will be enjoying some relaxation with his family on the Gold Coast as well as taking part in a day's action of V8 Supercar and Champcar racing.
Grönholm will start his weekend fix for speed with a visit to Warner Bros. Movie World on Thursday at 9am. His day will include a ride aboard the Superman Escape roller coaster; the ride that travels from 0-100km in just two seconds!
The two-time World Rally Champion will drive one of the pacecar sessions on the Saturday, including the winners of the Ford Focus 'Smooth As' promotion.
The Finnish rally star will watch one of the Champcar practice sessions as well as take in the V8 Supercar's opening race on Saturday afternoon.
Gronholm will watch the opening champcar practice session on Saturday from the Forsyth Racing pit at 10am. He will drive the Focus pacecar at 1.20pm. Then complete his day watching the V8 Supercar race from the Ford Performance Racing garage at 4pm.
