Event Description

Burpham Motor Racing Club (BMRC) is holding its third Classic Car and Motorbike Show in Burpham near Arundel, West Sussex on Sunday 2nd September 2012.  This year, we are proud to announce that John Surtees will be in attendance, and the show will be in support of his charity, The Henry Surtees Foundation. We will be honored with a fly past from the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, a Lancaster Bomber, Hurricane and Spitfire.

 

For this unique event, John & the BMRC will be bringing together a collection of his racing cars and motorbikes to create a special Formula 1 Paddock. In addition, we will be holding a ticketed talk with John to celebrate his racing career, to include an autograph signing session. Also in paddock we shall have Michael Schumacher's F1 2006 Ferrari show car on display and in addition, members of the public will get the chance to experience the pressure of a timed F1 wheel change in The Pit Stop Challenge, with the fastest change of the day winning a prize. The Vintage Mobile Cinema will also show a marvelous collection of motor films through out the day including a short documentary on John Surtees, and as a special feature, “Dream Rides” offers the public the chance to ride in the car of their dreams on a ten-mile trip in return for a donation to The Henry Surtees Foundation.

 

Over 200 fabulous classic cars and motorbikes bikes will be on display, from Vintage vehicles from the 30’s to Future Classics. We are also delighted that the Ferrari Owners Cub will be joining us too with a magnificent parade of their super cars. There will also be a collection of historic Police vehicles on display as part of Sussex Police’s Bike Safe initiative.

Every year we celebrate a decade; this year, the “Festival of the 40’s” will feature a full size Mk 9 Spitfire from Simply Spitfire, a photo opportunity if ever there was one! If you have ever dreamt of flying in this iconic plane, then why not have a go in our professional Spitfire simulator courtesy of Spitsim. Acclaimed dancers “Jive Swing” will be offering free lessons by our Tea Dance Tent, as well as putting on a stunning cabaret of Jitterbug and Lindy hop. Live music will be provided by “The Three Belles”, a 1940s vocal trio inspired by The Andrews Sisters, as well as the legends that are “The Gents”, whilst “Viv the Spiv” will host and compare. And there’s plenty of opportunity to get into that vintage look too with The Vintage Hair Lounge, Eye Spy glasses and the Vintage Revival Clothing Company, and of course there will be wonderful collection of military vehicles on display, including an Anderson shelter too!

 

We will also have “The Village”, tented marquees and outside pitches, with high quality exhibitors dealing in everything from stunning classic motorbikes to quality car care products, beautiful jewelry to fine country clothing. And our fabulous street food outlets will serve you throughout the day,  everything in fact to tickle your taste buds!
