ppc_itp09

Saturday May 23 2009 Mallory ParkPPC in the Park is Europe’s most exciting new event for car enthusiasts. No other show combines non-stop live action on the track, some of the most amazing cars ever built on display in the paddock, and the chance to see PPC’s very own 27-litre V12 Rover and turbocharged Rolls Royce track-day car in action.

You can become part of the action by booking track time for you and your car at just £12.50 per session (booked in advance). You can also watch the PPC £999 Challenge contestants battling it out to become the 2009 champion in the fastest car you can build for less than £1000.Slightly more expensive is the Dodge Dakota jet-powered truck which will be firing up its monster engine with afterburner.

Then there’s PPC feature cars, the PPC team and their cars (including editor Will Holman’s 5-litre V8 Capri). And PPC’s technical guru, Dave Walker, will be holding a live Walker’s Workshop demonstration.To top it all we’ll be having a few shandys in the evening with a marquee and bar from the Ace Cafe - so bring your tent because camping’s completely free. PPC in the Park is 2009’s must-attend event.
