Great day out! With a bit of track thrown in too!

If you can’t stand the smell of petrol, if you don’t get goose pimples when a dragster launches, or if your manicurist’s phone number is on speed dial, bu88er off. PPC in the Park is not for you. But for the rest of you we’ve some good news. PPC in the Park is back.

PPC in the Park 2011 is the ultimate car show for car enthusiasts and petrolheads. It has everything you would expect from PPC magazine in a live show, in one action packed day at Mallory Park on Saturday 21st May.

Hot rods: The National Association of Street Clubs show off their polish and their prowess on track. They are surprisingly quick thanks to their big V8s and even bigger balls.

BHP Competition: We want to find the most powerful car at PPC in the Park. Dan Turner from Advanced Motorsport and Engineering is bringing along his hub dyno-set up and offering free power runs to the most powerful cars. His set-up can handle over 1500bhp through a single axle (more for four wheel drive). If you've got a car that approaches the magic 1000bhp figure get in touch and we'll get you booked in.

Off road action: If you like your action on the dirty side we've got the off road buggies again with Team-X running the show but this time we're opening it up to any 4x4 providing the vehicles have a roll cage fitted and the driver has a suitable crash helmet. The course is a World Motorcross track and has some big jumps but you can plod around it at our own pace or get some air if you are feeling brave.

PPC Cars: All the PPC cars will be brought along for you to have a look at and PPC staff will be there to chat through their cars and favourite features.

Burnouts: Because we can. Different cars doing burnouts. We’ll never ‘tyre’ of it. I’ll get my coat.

Jet engine: fitted to PPC track-day Rolls Royce. Not happy with seven-litres of turbo charged Rolls Royce V8 to power the PPC Roller the boys have been out and bought a jet engine. The plan is to fire it up for the first time on the day. Wear your fire proof pants.

The world’s first PPC Non-concours: The typical concours is a parade of motor vehicles in which the car in the ‘best original condition’ is given a prize. We do things a bit differently at PPC. We are holding the first ever non-concours. The winner will be the car that has the most amount of modifications - be it home-grown (Charlie-style), after market, or bastardised. Editor Will Holman will pick the cars he likes the most – yes, it’ll be that arbitrary – not a clipboard in sight. The winner will receive a PPC prize.

Autotest Test yourself with our Autotest: It’s always a great spectator sport too – you can’t beat the sounds and smells of an Autotest, smack bang in the middle of a show to get the juices going. We allow anyone to have a go –for just £10 for 3 runs. This year we are pitching club against club – nominate your best driver to take part in the Autotest and we’ll announce the winning club at the end of the show.

All-day track action is the lifeblood of the show. Throughout the day, the track will be filled with every type of car you can imagine. At PPC we pride ourselves for being a broad church and expect to see as diverse array as last year: 800bhp race cars, French hot-hatches, Transit vans, hot rods and vintage drifters.

Mallory Park is a great circuit for drivers and spectators. The full Mallory circuit is a mile and a half of fast sweepers, left and right, a fast straight and a hell of a hairpin. Based in a natural amphitheatre it’s a great spectator circuit – with a huge number of viewing spots to choose – making PPC in the Park the most action packed car show – with a full day of track action to watch.

Track time is booked in 15 minute slots. Group bookings are welcome – your club can have their own time slots on track. Just let us know when you book and we’ll do our best to arrange it. For just £20 per session.
