Vospers, one of the event's title sponsors and one of the region's biggest new and used car dealers, will be providing a number of cars, as well as MSA licensed drivers to take selected visitors up the hill.

Abarth will be in attendance throughout the event and as well as showing its range of performance Fiats off, will be performing aerobatic displays in its stunt plane – flown by pilot Mark Jeffries.
