Ultimate Street Car 2019 Report

Ultimate Street Car 2019 – what a weekend! A car show like no other; the largest, loudest, hottest and fastest car festival in Europe sure lived up to its name with a colossal line up. The weekend will go down in history as one of the biggest and best yet with electrifying and high-octane entertainment everywhere you looked! We hope you all enjoyed what we had in store as much as we did.

Fighting off some tough opponents and putting those driving skills of speed and precision to the ultimate test, Kai Lewis in his Toyota Yaris was the winner of the USC Handling Track Competition 2019 with a time of 29.25 seconds – well done Kai!

The Man vs. Food competition was yet again a sight to behold as participants scoffed and demolished their way through the ‘tin can challenge’ (a varied and frankly quite gross assortment of tinned food!) a giant bag of marshmallows, a cup of flour, 2 pints of milk, a jar of jalapenos finishing with a large raw onion! The onion proved the most challenging for our finalists – sick buckets were at the ready! A massive well done to winner Robert Kemp – our King of USC Man vs. Food for the second year in a row!

As always, the awesome music line up at USC was as large, loud, hot, fast and jam-packed than ever before with world famous acts and DJs! Providing us with one hell of a USC soundtrack, Kojo Funds and Big Narstie headlined the main stage with P Money and Tinchy Stryder alongside the mesmerising Bass Honeys. Drum & Bass masters Random Concept and dance legends Club MTV featuring Jaguar Skills, blew the lid off the big top alongside the glamorous Narnishakers. We partied hard over in Fuelers Bar, The Silent Disco Company kept those decks spinning with a variety of tunes to boogie along to until the early hours; the best of UK garage & grime was on the agenda too with Sidewinder Raw. DJ Richie Don and his eclectic crew of DJs and MCs kicked off the Saturday night celebrations and kept the party going on Sunday rounding off our USC weekend of mammoth music!

The on-stage entertainment was awesome as always with all sorts of fun and frolics - Mr and Miss USC was an awesome combination of cringy yet hilarious shenanigans! First up was Mr USC; after frozen t-shirts, smelly socks & lager, push ups, go fetch and a strip tease or two we crowned James Cripps Mr USC – well done James! Next up was Miss USC with a sucking card game, wet t-shirts, condoms on bananas, twerking all finishing with a lap dance. Eventually we crowned Leah Atkin winner of Miss USC – well done Leah!

Other competitions were the Flameout and USC Burnout Competitions which were both awesome and quite frankly mental! The USC Burnout was up first on the Saturday afternoon with tyre-shredding, rubber-burning, smoke action aplenty. Cheering the loudest, you guys deemed the winner Martin Shepard in his E46 BMW! As darkness fell, the Live Action Arena was lit up as contestants and their cars took part in the Flame Out Competition. Man and machine attempted to outdo each other with the biggest cheer going to Chris Eade in his Mk3 Fiesta with a massive flame thrower kit! One of the highlights of the show is undoubtedly when all participants flameout at the same time – the crowd was massive – we hope you enjoyed it!
