It's going to be on the weekend of July 4th 2004!

We'll probably kick off on Friday night and make a bit of a weekend of it

Keep your diaries free!

There should be plenty of stuff to see from the dragster boys once again as well as many more attractions on our side.

Should be better than 2003- some serious negotiations currently happening, and given the date, maybe a lot more Americana this time round.
It also happens the same weekend as the British GP, so no excuse for not attending, and yes, there will be live coverage on a bigger screen for all.
Marquee promises to be at least twice the size, with real ales & more choice for all, and lots of activities for the entire weekend - watch this (or that) space ..............

On the contrary dear boy - there won't be many events clashing with the GP, making a clash of PF and further shows less likely. Also with ticket prices at about £120 each, only a selected few will have the option to attend. The rest will be able to enjoy coverage at PistonFest amongst fellow petrolheads.

I hope you enjoy the Grand Prix and we all look forward to hearing all about it on Monday morning.

I may be wrong but isn't it also the Euro 2004 Final and Wimbledon Mens Final.... you'll need 3 screens.

Euro 2004 final is on Sunday evening so that's not a problem.

We only had a limited number of dates to work with so it's just a matter of making the best of what we've got.

Can see Ted hitting someone in a minute



I wasn't complaining.... if last year's PF is anything to go by, I was still feeling too hung-over to watch the GP anyway.
