The Forge Motorsport Action Day this Saturday 14th September 2013 is set tofollow in the tyre tracks of the Spring Performance Action Day earlier thisyear as yet again, the Circuitis celebrating a record number of pre-evententries with 97 Owner's Clubs already booked in and displaying over 1500performance cars.
The event traditionally attracts thousands of performance car enthusiastsfrom around the UK as there is always plenty of activity both on and off thetrack.
Marketing and Events Manager, Jo Sparrow, confirmed: "We are absolutelydelighted with the numbers booked in for this year's event. The event isalways popular but the addition of Forge Motorsport in recent years isreallyreaping dividends as the event now attracts a whole selection ofexhibitors, manufacturers and on track demonstrations to really add to theatmosphere of the day.
"Highlights have to include the special demonstration and parade laps ontrack. The pro drifting teams - Acorn Infinity and Team Falken - will beworking alongside local drifting team, the Drift Battles, and performingsynchronised drifting demonstrations during the day. Both pro drifting teamswill be fielding drivers who are currently competing in the British DriftChampionships so close driving car skills, plenty of tyre shredding andsmoke will definitely be the order of the day!
"Meguiar's, the UK's leading car care supplier, will be putting on aMeguiar's Invitation Parade Lap where we should see around 20 performancecars that normally just wouldn't go out on track. Low speeds and some gentledriving though and you really should see something special in this 15-minuteparade" Jo added.
In addition to the on-track activity, there will be plenty of off-trackactivity with the Paddock teaming with exhibitors, manufacturers, trade andOwner's Club displays. Exhibitors include Milltek Sport, Cobra Seats,Alias23, Powerflex, Scorpion Exhausts, Bilstein, Meguiar's UK, OwenDevelopments, Revo, Eibach, BHP Performance Show and Vibe Audio alongsideForge Motorsport themselves. All will be bringing a fantastic selection ofcars and displays and many of the cars will be going out during the ForgeMotorsport demonstration laps on track. Add in a further trade sites andthere really is a mix of all things performance car.

You can seek advice fromthe experts, you can just stand back and admire. As long as you've got aninterest in performance cars, then this event really does tick the boxes!"
