2007 events and attractions:

For 2007, the attraction that just about EVERYONE was talking about was of course TV Channel 4's amazing Scrapheap Challenge. Teams battled through a series of races taking their unique 'juice free' machines to the limits as they were cheered on by visitors to the show. scrapheap challenge logo

Channel 4’s legendary engineering game show came to the Wroughton Classic 2007 as they opened their rusty garage doors and threw down the oily gauntlet to the great bodging British public as they staged two Scrapheap Challenge Roadshows.

The first was filmed in June at the National Motor Museum in Beaulieu, where sixteen teams thrilled a massive crowd in a motorised furniture grand prix.

The gauntlet was again thrown down, a celebrity team of famous faces from past shows was recruited, and the great British public were challenged yet again - and it all took place, and was filmed, at the Wroughton Classic 2007! Watch out for it in 2008 when it will be shown on Channel 4 for all to see!

SILENT GRAND PRIX

Our own unique pedal car races proved to be extremely popular with children and adults alike! Throughout the day, teams pedalled furiously to improve their technique and skills and finally battled it out in series of 'pedal power' races in our own unique adult sized pedal cars.

2007 Silent Grand Prix Champions were....

TEENAGERS REBORN

pedal car winners

They were awarded their fantastic cup which was kindly donated by the Science Museum Wroughton's INSPIRE project

Brought to us by 'KRAZEE KARTS' the races are organised with 'FUN' in mind and a great time was had by all.

SLOT CAR RACING

This amazing display of slot cars (similar to that family favourite 'Scalextric' but with slightly smaller, faster cars!) was brought to the show by local club enthusiasts who meet regularly to test their skills and discuss this popular past-time. The display was laid out inside the main exhibition hanger and proved to be a firm favourite with the kids (and bigger kids). The cars drew a crowd throughout the weekend and will be back again for 2008!

Results from the 2007 slot car races can be seen here: Saturday, Sunday
