Since its inception 65 years ago, the ‘Pom’ has earned cult status as a true one-off in motorsport circles, with the principle behind the event for road-going cars remaining unchanged. Through a number of Driving Tests of speed, agility and braking ability and the famed ‘Suitcase Test’, followed by a 40-minute Regularity Trial, the Club’s magic formula will help us calculate the very best Grand Tourer.
 
The car which wins the ‘Pom’ is always a true all-rounder driven by a great driver, so why not join us and see how you and your favourite car fair? There is simply no other competitive event that offers such outstanding value for money with Competitors getting the best part of an hour’s track time at the home of British Motorsport – compare that to your average Race!
