Nope its your fault, its unAustralian to stand up for yourself, to seek to right wrongs. People like you make it so businesses have to provide the service they promise, raising the cost of the sub standard service some people are used too.

For shame.


Inserted sarcasm tags for the daft.

However the amount of money you are asking them to spend on legal counsel will be alot more than you think!!

i don't have a great opinion on the matter but the thing i hate is the fact it has long been known that Americans will sue everybody and anybody for everything. and it annoys me that Australia is going the same way.
i know a guy that sued the local water company beacause he was being an idiot playing with a water grate and he dropped it on his toe and took off the end of his toe.
he got 10 grand or more for his own stupidity.

Instead of V8SC is there an event management company which advertises and organises the events that you can write to first? When I had a problem with seating at Indy I wrote and talked to a lady on the management committee for the whole event. She actually worked for Lexmark, not Champ Cars or V8SC and she was able to help me.

Maybe there is someone more suitable that you should be seeking an answer from...
