THE KWIK-FIT MICHELIN TRACK

No moving motor show would be complete without the Tarmac Tearaways representing modern motorsport – on the Kwik Fit-Michelin Track, there is a bit of everything! Once you hear the roar of the engines and smell the burning rubber, you won't be able to tear yourself away from the action!

Check out just a few of our themes for the track shows this year…

Alternative Fuels

Exploring the fuels of the future as well as remarkable non-fossil burners from the past – Biofuel, Electric, Steam and Hydrogen all offer an alternative source of planet-saving energy.

American Graffiti

Celebrating muscle cars, customs, hot-rods and Americana – we can’t stay seventeen forever, but we can certainly give it a go!

Aston Martin Showcase

The gentleman spy’s first choice of transport on the silver screen turns 60 this year and with the generous support of Aston Martin we’re going to throw it a party to remember! Featuring an incredible original DB5 and a very special guest or two!

Corvette at 70

Eight iterations of the always-amazing Corvette have brought it to a venerable 70th birthday and to mark the occasion we will parade as many of the generations as we can gather on track.

Jaw Droppers

Bedroom wall poster cars in carbon and metal. British, German, and Italian supercars compete for attention on track and in the paddock. The super-models of the car world strut their stuff, just for you.

Motorsport Mayhem

Our annual selection of sideways shenanigans will be slaying tyres for fun and adding a little smoke to your barbecue throughout the weekend, if you get our drift?

Old School Heroes

Back where it all began – a bevy of veteran and vintage beauties pay tribute to the origins of motoring and our love affair with cars.

Porsche 911 at 60

It’s 60 years since the launch of the legendary Porsche 911, one of the most significant vehicles in the Porsche marque's history, and we have an incredible array of the rare, the outrageous and the downright gorgeous lined up for display on the CarFest track.

Resto-Mods

If you know your RestoMods from your Customs then you’re in for a treat, if the beginning of this sentence made no sense, then you’re in for a bigger treat! Classic cars made better with modern technology – the perfect combination of form and function.

Tarmac Optional

When the road runs out these cars don’t care. From an era when rallying ruled the world and “off-road” meant more than up-the-kerb in Chelsea, these fire-snorting monsters knew how to travel everywhere – fast!

Track Stars

Formula cars & circuit racers that warp time and defy the laws of physics. If you want to go 100mph in a straight line buy any hatchback, if you want to go 150mph through a bend without lifting you need a track car!

Weird & Wonderful

A fabulous collection of oddballs and eccentricities from across the motoring gamut, if you’ve ever wondered what Del-Boy would look like in a drag car, or what they’ll be driving if you decide who to call, we have the answers for you.

When We Were Young

100% of our audience has childhood memories of favourite cars and fantasy drives, some of which will be made right here at CarFest! For the older members of our audience these memories were made decades ago, and these are a few of the cars they lusted after when they were young.

Meet Our Track Presenters!

For die-hard CarFest fans that know the track plays a central role in the festival, you’ll also know that we beam the track shows across the festival site, so you don’t miss any of the action. Part of the excitement of the track is meeting the cars and drivers as they get ready to wow with their driving skills.

And this year, we’re delighted to be able to announce that our Track Presenters, BBC Sport Reporter Mike Bushell & Torie Campbell will be joining us to interview our guest drivers as they get ready to hit the tarmac!

THE KWIK-FIT MICHELIN MOTORSPORT PADDOCK

The Kwik Fit-Michelin Motorsport Paddock is designed for the youngest car lovers to the most seasoned car enthusiast to get close and get under the bonnet of some of the most iconic and innovative vehicles.

HOW HEALTHY ARE YOUR TYRES?

New for 2023: Experience Michelin's exceptional service as they meticulously inspect the condition and inflation pressure of your car's tyres at both campsite and day visitor car parks for free throughout the weekend! Their knowledgeable experts will provide tailored advice on maximising tyre safety, enhancing performance, and optimising running costs to suit your unique needs. And if your tyres need any adjustments, their team will skillfully fine-tune the tyre pressure to optimise your car's overall performance*. You’ll leave CarFest with your car set and ready for your next journey!

We’ll be sharing more details of how to book your Tyre Health Check in the coming weeks… stay tuned!

* Michelin or selected third parties will inspect the pressure and overall condition of the tyres on your vehicle. The tyre pressure may be adjusted only where it is deemed safe to do so. The checks will be done by selected technicians to the standard specified by your vehicle’s manufacturer based on its Original Equipment specification.

SPORTING BEARS DREAM RIDES

Thanks to your generosity and the team at Sporting Bears, this hugely exciting driving experience has raised over £845,000 over the past 12 years for our Children’s Charities. We’ll be revealing the fantastic selection of cars that you can bid on very shortly!
