As we prepare for the ultimate performance car event, here’s a preview of everything you can expect to see at Trax Silverstone 2024 for what promises to be the biggest event yet!
After a year’s hiatus from the show calendar, Trax Silverstone is back bigger than ever for 2024 and we can’t wait to share some of the show features already confirmed for the event on Sunday, September 1st. This Trax 2024 event preview will be continuously updated over the coming weeks as we confirm new show features, stand-out display cars, partners and perhaps the odd surprise along the way…
What’s on a Trax Silverstone 2024?
Club Displays & Awards
The car clubs are what make our shows so special, and this year we’re striving to bring the very best of the car scene to Silverstone. As always, members of car clubs can show out in style and sign up to display their vehicle at the event, with awards being given out for the very best stands in the form of Best Car Club, Best Regional Car Club, Best One Make Car Club and Club Hero.

Drift Kings
Drifting has always been a key part of our shows, wowing spectators with ludicrous angles, hair-raising limiter bashes and balls-to-the-wall action. Well, we couldn’t have the return of Trax without the Drift Kings feature now, could we? Taking up three 20 minute track sessions throughout the day, Britain’s top drifters battle it out to find out who really is the best drifter. Drivers will begin their runs on Wellington Straight, reaching speeds of over 100mph before entering the slides through Brooklands, Luffield and Woodcote.
You can watch all of the action from the Brooklands and BRDC grandstands.
Retail Village
Fancy bagging yourself a deal? Or simply after some inspiration or advice? Thankfully, our retail village is here to help. Packed full of some of the top aftermarket specialists, no matter what you’re after, there’s a retailer that can help. From exhausts, to turbos, blow-off valves, tyres, tools to cleaning kits, you’ll find it here.
Drift Taxis
We’re excited to announce a brand new feature for 2024 in the form of Drift Taxis. Visitors will now have the opportunity to hop into the passenger seat and experience the exhilarating rush of drifting firsthand, all while being expertly guided by seasoned professionals at the helm.
There are 220 slots available throughout the day, and Advanced Passenger rides are only £35 each, saving £5 from the on-the-day price.
Trax Street Elite
Want to take home the coveted top prize at Trax? Street Elite is a hand-picked competition where our judges choose the entrants via an online application. The chosen cars will have the opportunity to be part of ‘Street Elite’ live at the show. On the day, our judges will pick a top three with the winner taking home the trophy and bragging rights. Head over to the Street Elite page.
Public Track Time
Want to scratch the itch of driving on track? There isn’t a more famous circuit in the UK than Silverstone. Not only that, but with track sessions lasting only 20 minutes, you don’t have to worry about using tanks of fuel, or getting through a set of brake pads. You can do as many or as few sessions as you like. And if you don’t fancy driving around track yourself, you can either get yourself a session as a passenger, or you can watch from the grandstands or other viewing areas around the track.
Japfest Zone
With the success of Japfest 2024, we wanted to bring a dedicated Japfest zone to Trax, to show of some of those beautiful JDM builds. If you’d like to be a part of this area with your car, visit this Japfest Zone page to find out more.
Fast Car Stand
You didn’t think we wouldn’t have our own stand now, did you? Don’t worry folks, we’re bringing together some truly special cars for the FC display at Trax 2024. You’ll not only see previous feature cars, but you’ll also see what we have lined up. From the fastest Lamborghini in Europe to widebody custom Porsches, get your cameras at the ready…
Other Trax 2024 show features
We’re working hard on bringing more features to the show, but you can expect to also see a special display area, where those who aren’t part of a car club can still sign up to display their car at the event. There are also rosettes being awarded to the top 10 cars on display at the show, judged by our very own team here at Fast Car.
To purchase your tickets, and find out important information about the event, head over to the Trax website.
