£999 Challenge FREE T-Shirt

£999 Challenge 2010 Santa PodLess than Thirteen weeks to go until the 2010 PPC £999 Challenge, this year at Santa Pod, the event where you get to build a car and race a car within a budget of £999.

For those of you who haven't booked yet visit www.pppcmag.co.uk/999-challenge FREE t-shirt for every entrant this year, or email me registering your interest in participating as places are going fast.


Even I am in the running this year with a 1983 Capri bought from Ebay for £500, God bless the Bay of E, and that bottle of wine!

You can follow some of the £999 entries at www.ppcmag.co.uk/forum to give yourself some ideas for weight saving, cheap extras or perhaps driving skills for the day.

Anyone can win the PPC £999 Challenge. In 2007 there was the Nissan Pulsar, 2008 was Reliant Kitten and last year we had a joint 1st place between an MX5 and Honda Prelude.

Practical Performance Car (PPC) is a monthly magazine aimed at real car enthusiasts interested in affordable performance tuning. At PPC we pride ourselves in providing the most entertaining, informative and inspiring features for petrolheads everywhere. Each month we feature an eclectic mix of affordable performance cars, great driving adventures and world-class technical features for the DiY tuner. Our editorial team is headed up by well known Will Holman who has a deserved reputation for 'stick a V8 under the bonnet' attitude to life. His editorial team is stacked with experience including Dave Walker (speciality engine management), of the sadly missed Cars and Car Conversions (CCC) magazine, David Vizard, the legendary engine tuning guru, and Kevin Leaper - ex technical editor of Practical Classics.

Have a look at the online Staff Cars section to give you a flavour of PPC but for the real thing go to your local newsagent, WHSmiths, Asda, Tesco or Sainsburys - PPC is on sale the last Thursday of every month. Better still visit our subscriptions page for the latest offers and discounts to have PPC delivered direct to your door at a fraction of the cost.

Examples of magazine features: brakes uprating, suspension improvements, engine transplants, buyers guides, ECU management, kit car builds, car event coverage (including PPC's own show, PPC in the Park) and much more. Examples of some of the staff's cars: 27 litre Rover SD1, 5 litre Capri, track day Rolls Royce, MK1 Transit and more.
