I saw the very last Live Action Show on Sunday at 16:45 and it was just a few races with banger cars etc. But after watching the Video that's just been posted by Pistonheads i noticed alot of other things going on in the show???

I went Sunday lunchtime. There was a lot of 'banger racing', but there was also some drag racing, go-karts, rally stuff, jumping, world record J-turn, very impressive doughnuts etc...

It was good to watch, although I must say that was the one area where MPH took the biscuit.

I thought Saturday was better than Sunday.

The last show of the day is always oval racing rather than the normal live action arena. They do state this on the booking forms/screens but it's very easy to make a mistake and get stitched up.

I fell into that, I didn't see any references to a different last show and wasn't impressed TBH, oval racing really not my thing...

It was the first attempt.
They said he'd already done it and then he went on to break his own record.

it was good to see the f1 drivers, other half got mark webber and david coulthards autograph and even managed to get david coulthards can of red bull that he left behind before he jetted of to brussels!!
was not impressed with the speed oval show, i book the last show on saturday and expected to see driffting etc as well as the oval racing,many people left before the show finished. and as for terry grant,what a waste of space!! yeah sure he can drive but it was more of a pantomime than anything else "oh will i break the record" and i know that he is doing it all for renault but you cant pollish a turd, its a renault twingo and no it isnt a good car!!!!!!
