Bmw Show 2012

[Snypa-D]

The BMW Show at Santa Pod Raceway is back for it's 7th year and all BMWs are welcome- race cars, show cars, modern, retros, classics, new minis and BMW bikes.

BMWs have all the right elements to make great drag cars. Powerful engines, rear-wheel drive and stable handling all add up to unbeatable straight-line fun. It's no wonder so many BMW owners are hooked on Run What Ya Brung events at Santa Pod Raceway.

It's for this reason that Santa Pod introduced an event exclusively for BMW owners, where the track is open only to Bavaria's finest. Camping is available to all those that wish to stay for an extra day of fun at the Pod with RWYB on Saturday and Music in Fuelers bar on Saturday night plus fun fair rides.

The BMW SHOW will feature:

Run What Ya Brung (BMWs only)

Get your car out on the famous ¼ mile! Full performance print out for each run, and competition with trophies for fastest 4, 6 & 8 cylinder cars. £25 for UNLIMITED runs on the track!

All vehicles that run during the day are put into classes and there are trophies for the fastest in each class.

Classes:

Class A - 4 cylinder (not minis)

Class B - 6 cylinder

Class C - 8 or more cylinders

Class D - Diesels

Class E - BMW Bikes

Class F - New Minis

Class X - Non road legal (including all cars on slicks)

Drivers of diesel cars can choose to enter either their cylinder class (A/B/C) or the Diesel class.

To enter the RWYB, simply enter on the day. You will need to bring your normal road driving licence to enter. Drivers of soft-top vehicles and those doing 110mph+ at the finish line will need a crash helmet. More details on the RWYB page.

If you want maximum track time then come for the weekend as there is a RWYB on the Saturday with free camping for weekend ticket holders.

If you can't wait until BMW Show, visit www.RWYB.com for a full calendar of RWYB dates at Santa Pod Raceway.

Show & Shine Competition (BMWs Only)

Got a sweet BMW show car? Whether it's a concours classic, or a modern modified monster, you are welcome to park up in the Show Car Paddock. There’s no need to pre-enter, and anyone with a BMW can enter on the day for FREE.

Trophies:

Best Of Show

Best Custom

Best Original

Best New Mini

Best Bike

Don’t leave your car in the carpark where nobody can see it, get it round to the show & shine area, located behind the grandstand and you might be going home with a trophy.

Don’t forget to register your entry when you arrive in the show & shine area, registration is FREE.

Don’t forget to attend the presentations to find out if you have won.

Please remember this isn’t a concours show, so we won’t be knocking off points for non-original brake pads, but we will be choosing cars on what we like the best purely on look and overall condition. The best original will go to older cars in exceptional condition. The best custom is for cars that are heavily modified, and best of show is the car that everyone wants to take home!

Jet Car

With a sound like thunder and 20ft flames spewing out the back of this 270mph monster, you won’t be able to miss the Fireforce Jet Car if you tried.

Keep your eyes peeled for other spectacular dragsters from national drag classes out on track too.

Club Displays / Club Camping

All BMWs welcome, classic and modern, race cars, retros, show cars and BMW bikes! To book a club stand you will need at least ten vehicles, then call 01234 782828. Club camping is also available, so why not stay for the weekend? Details on the Clubs page.

Handling Circuit

The Handling Circuit will be here, bigger and better than ever before! It’s perfect for people to test their driving skills not just their straight line speed! Put your driving ability to the test, or compete against your mates. The Handling Circuit will be FREE but you will need to fill in a disclaimer form and present a full driving licence. Full details on the Handling Circuit Page.

Drift Passenger Rides

If you want the ultimate sideways fix, why not hop in with one of our experienced drifters, who will give you the ride of your life for a mere £10! Feel the g-force of these high-powered cars and get the best seat in the house for a smoky trip around the drift track. Simply visit the drift team at the drift track to register.

Stunt Displays

Crazy stunts from top drivers in the Live Action Arena.

AutoTrader Cars for Sale Paddock

When you're looking for your next set of wheels, where's the first place you look? AUTOTRADER of course! Which is why we're bringing Autotrader to you!

If you've got a car you want to sell, park it up in the Autotrader Cars For Sale Paddock, stick your phone number on the dashboard, and wait for the calls to come flooding in. Whether you're buying, selling or browsing, this is the best way to shift cars at the show. And the best bit.? It's FREE for both buyers and sellers!
