Calling all petrol-heads – Vauxhall and non-Vauxhall owners.
Crave the thrill of the track? Waiting for a chance to test your driving skills to the limit? The VXR Power Festival is for you! Taking place at Silverstone Circuit on 28-29 August, it's packed with pay-and-play activities for you and your family and friends to experience, including:

• Track activities on Silverstone's Southern Circuit – VXR demonstrators, owners’ track sessions and performance laps with professional drivers
• 0-60 / quarter-mile – test your car on the Hangar Straight (timed 0-60 and quarter-miles available)
• Karting – purpose–built, 750m kart track
• Auto-test – Paul Swift VXR stunt show and learn how to auto-test
• Car Club displays and trade stands
• Vauxhall heritage and motorsport displays.

As well as these pay-and-play activities, there are many more driving-related thrills on offer. Join us for the main event - the gripping action-packed VXR Pro-Am Pursuit on the Stowe Circuit, with live commentary by Louise Goodman. The race features celebrities and BTCC drivers – Fabrizio Giovanardi, James Thompson, Paul O'Neil, Tom Onslow-Cole, John Cleland, Tom Chilton, Matt Neal, Colin Turkington and Jason Plato - all battling for circuit glory.
All proceeds from the VXR Power Festival 2010 will be donated to the Help for Heroes charity.
