Our intrepid media team attended the Petrolheadonism Live event in the grounds of Knebworth House, Hertfordshire on Saturday 16th and Sunday 17th September.
We know the organiser Ciro Ciampi well and, as would be expected, he put on a magnificent show.
Thank you everyone that supported me, supported the show, supports the movement.
The club’s third Annual Season Closer event is a ‘must-see’ family spectacular and one of the most exciting events on the car show calendar, and this year’s get-together was no exception. Showcasing all the Petrolheadonism sub-cultures by bringing together the rare, the exotic and the nostalgic, with lots of live action from Dyno Runs to the Burn-Out Pad and the Wall of Death.
