Is Tankfest the best tank mobility display in the world? Many of its visitors think so after a bumper sold-out three day visitor attendance, and evidenced by the many accents heard around the show, almost but drowned out by the noise of armoured vehicles charging around the arena. The distinctive sounds of diesel and aero engines, rattle of tracks, the quiet running of stealthy recce vehicles, the smell of engine exhaust and pyrotechnic smoke, dust and heat of a sundrenched weekend, the noise and bustle of spectating crowds – all the elements that make up a live show.
