Welcome to Practical Performance Car (PPC) magazine, a monthly publication aimed at real car enthusiasts, with real-world cars. At PPC we pride ourselves in providing the most entertaining, informative and inspiring features for petrolheads everywhere. Each month we feature an eclectic mix of affordable performance cars, great driving adventures and world-class technical features for the DIY tuner.
Everyone who works on the magazine is a dyed-in-the-wool car enthusiast and this is reflected in the cars we drive and the topics we write about. Whether it be fast road, track-day or grass roots motorsport you’ll find it in PPC. Our editorial team is headed up by well known editor Will Holman. Will has a deserved reputation for his ’stick a V8 under the bonnet’ attitude to life and has had (and crashed/ had stolen/ rusted away) enough cars to fill a monthly magazine on his own. His editorial team is stacked with experience with the likes of Dave Walker (speciality engine management), of the sadly-missed Car and Car Conversions magazine, David Vizard, the legendary engine tuning guru, and Kevin Leaper (speciality buying cars in pubs) – ex technical editor of Practical Classics. Have a look at the Staff Cars and features to give you a flavour of PPC but for the real thing get along to your local WH Smiths or independent newsagent. PPC is on sale on the last Thursday of every month.

PPC’s Oulton Park Track-Day a Roaring Success
It was cold, boy was it cold, but PPC’s first track-day at Oulton Park was a roaring success. The event was fully booked from the off with over a hundred cars in attendance – everything from a Sierra Thunder Saloon to a Reliant Kitten with two bike engines made it. A friendly atmosphere, good banter and of course a day of exploring Oulton Park’s limits made it a day to remember – go to the forum and find out how much fun everyone had! Thanks to Focused Events for superb organisation.In fact it went so well we’re going to be doing more so keep looking in PPC for details of our next track-day early next year. And of course track time at PPC in the Park is keenly priced and selling out fast. Call 01780 758804.
