SPECIAL RAFFLE PRIZE - SIT IN FREDDY'S REVENGE FOR A START-UP!!

The team have decided to give one lucky person the chance to sit in their Fuel Altered (and very loud) drag car while they start it up at CWC this year. Don't worry, the half shafts aren't fitted so you won't be firing yourself at the horizon.

Buy your tickets for this raffle prize from the team. We'll announce the winner at 2.30 during the raffle draw, and then the car will be started at 3pm.

Ticket price TBA.


Please Note: the winning participant MUST sign a liability waiver.

Nope. They normally don't fly til late May (i.e. last week of May) and I wasn't aware of any shows in the south west that they might be displaying at.

We do have two hot air balloons though, weather permitting.

Just realised this...

We're not far shy of 600 vehicles now.

If every one actually turns up and donates £20, we'd raise £12,000 for the Children's Hospice. That would be superb, and a great example of the power of PHers banding together to do some good.

The hospice desperately needs funds to do the amazing work they do.

Looks like I'll be in the XK8 for this one so some spit and polish before the day. I'll be meeting a few friends at Sainsbury's in Taunton, near J25 so if anyone is going from the south west and wants to join us then just turn up at the Sainsburys car park, up at the top nearest to the petrol station at around quarter to 9 heading off at around 9ish.

Couple of questions. Are dogs allowed (our small & friendly Westie) and do you have to stay until close?
