Presenters Tiff Needell, Vicki Butler-Henderson and Jason Plato will compete on Saturday and Sunday in the Live Action Arena at Autosport International, Europe's largest motorsport show, held 14-17 January at the NEC in Birmingham, in front of a crowd of 4,700 people.

This will be the first time ever that Fifth Gear has performed segments from the TV show in front of a live audience. Stripped of camera trickery or editing, the public will see once and for all why these guys are the best drivers on TV.

The Live Action Arena is the UK’s largest indoor race track, and a highlight of Autosport International. The 4,700 seat grandstand allows visitors to see and hear an array of motor racing action, plus record-breaking stunts and celebrity appearances.

"The whole Fifth Gear production team wanted to be racing drivers when they grew up," said James Woodroffe, Fifth Gear Executive Producer. "To have an entire exhibition dedicated to practically every form of motorsport is heaven to us. We can't wait to be part of the Live Action Arena, the presenters have already started betting on who can drive the most sideways!”

"The Fifth Gear programme is very popular, and this ‘Dogfight’ will be a great addition to what is already a fun-packed Live Action Arena event," said Autosport International Show Director Ian France. "The audience will be given a show to remember, not just from the Fifth Gear team, but from the other competitors too."
