Track Action

We know this is what you really come for, and the clue’s in the name.

The pinnacle of drag racing, Top Fuel Dragsters are the quickest cars in drag racing! These cars run on nitromethane and can reach speeds in excess of 300mph accelerating from 0 - 100mph in under one second!

Top Fuel Dragster

Modern Nitro Funny Cars have the same engines as Top Fuel Dragsters but have tilt-up carbon fibre bodies with the engine in front of the driver.

Funny Car

These cars run 0-250mph in under 6 seconds! Full-bodied cars with massive engines and monster attitude. Pro Mod is the Motorsport UK British Drag Racing Championship class. (Fri, Sat & Sun)

Pro Mod

Nostalgia Funny Cars have classic body styles replicating the golden age of drag racing. Expect Long smoky burnouts followed by wild runs with times deep into the 6 second zone. (Fri, Sat & Sun)

Nostalgia Funny Car

Off-Track Action

There’s plenty to see and do away from the track.

This mighty 10,000lbs, 1350hp monster truck driven by Garry Anderson, will be crushing everything in its path.

Monster Truck - Podzilla

Joining Podzilla to wreak havoc in the arena is Swamp thing, the UK Monster Truck Nationals winning monster truck, driven by Tony Dixon.

Entertainment

There’s more to the day than just the dragstrip.

The sky won’t know what hit it. Our fireworks display is the perfect way to end the day, so bring a drink, grab a view, and enjoy the show.

Fireworks Display
