rumbled..... was I sober? Don't tell Max!

There were over 200 campers booked for each night, unfortunately I think the forecast put some people off actually going through with the camping.

PPC in the Park was an excellent event!

Highs: The Roller roof chop, it was done extremely professionally and the finished stance was spot on. Ye Olde Drifters were impresive, the sound of those thumping engines and the sheer balls of the drivers calls for respect. Track time topped off my day, after stacking my Volvo in October I had a mild case of the fear, but 2 outings in the Shedracing Prelude had me well and truly cured - sliding sideways on Gerrards but hanging on = priceless

Lows: Looking at my fuel gauge after my track time, how can that much fuel be used in such a short amount of time?! Looking at my watch at six o'clock & realising it was all over

Roll on 17th September for PPC at the Pod... £999 Challenge :clap:

Practical Performance Car (PPC) magazine, a monthly publication aimed at real car enthusiasts, with real-world cars. At PPC we pride ourselves in providing the most entertaining, informative and inspiring features for petrolheads everywhere. Each month we feature an eclectic mix of affordable performance cars, great driving adventures and world-class technical features for the DIY tuner.

Everyone who works on the magazine is a dyed-in-the-wool car enthusiast and this is reflected in the cars we drive and the topics we write about. Whether it be fast road, track-day or grass roots motorsport you’ll find it in PPC. Our editorial team is headed up by well known editor Will Holman. Will has a deserved reputation for his ’stick a V8 under the bonnet’ attitude to life and has had (and crashed/ had stolen/ rusted away) enough cars to fill a monthly magazine on his own. His editorial team is stacked with experience with the likes of Dave Walker (speciality engine management), of the sadly-missed Car and Car Conversions magazine, David Vizard, the legendary engine tuning guru, and Kevin Leaper (speciality buying cars in pubs) – ex technical editor of Practical Classics. Have a look at the Staff Cars and features to give you a flavour of PPC but for the real thing get along to your local WH Smiths or independent newsagent. PPC is on sale on the last Thursday of every month.
