64th Pomeroy Trophy

Press Release
 
This year’s Pomeroy Trophy sees the 64th edition of this historic event take to the Grand Prix Circuit at Silverstone having attracted 110 entrants all ready to take on a series of tests, including the famous ‘Wiggle Woggle’.
 
Amongst the eclectic group of entrants are a Vauxhall 30-98 OE Velox 1924 (the oldest car running in this year’s event), a 1934 Aston Martin Mark IIL, a 1956 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider and a 2017 Citroen C1.
 
In addition to the Wiggle Woggle, competitors will also be challenged by the Braking Test, Standing Quarter Mile into Flying 250m and the 40 minute ‘blind’ sessions which sees the competitors attempt to achieve a predetermined number of target laps.
 
Spectator entry is free for this historic event, and with weather forecasts predicting 0% chance of rain and clear skies its going to be a great day out. Gates open at 8am.  
 
And don’t forget the suitcases!
As with all Pomeroy events since the early 1990s’ all entrants will be required to properly stow two suitcases (to the FIA measurements: 60cm(25.6”) x 40cm(15.7”) x 20cm(9.8”) – failure too will result in a penalty.

Toyota GB’s Parallel Pomeroy Trophy is born
Inspired by the all comers welcome, open nature of ‘the Pom’ and seeking an event to include the wide variety of Toyota Owners’ clubs, the Toyota PR Team worked with the VSCC to develop an event with the same ethos as the Pom.
 
The event is open to owners of any Toyota, of any age or type and aiming, just like the Pom to find the UK’s best Toyota by bringing together brand enthusiasts for one memorable event. The new Parallel Pomeroy Trophy, already being shortened to ParaPom was born – and will take place on the same day at Silverstone, using elements of the same tests, and be assessed by the same judges, as the Pomeroy Trophy itself.
