The Idea
Here at The Pig Escapade, we are committed to spreading the joy of reading with children. We wanted to bring the story book character of Ed to life. Ed the worlds fastest shed was born and built by Mrs Pigee
Not only is Ed chasing speed, but he's also sharing his story with children. The Pig Escapade, children's book, tells the tale of Ed the worlds fastest shed who dared to defy the rules, encouraging young readers to be brave, dream big, and never let the wolves of the world hold them back.

"Smell my exhaust, Wolfee!" Ed the angry shed races from fairy tale to the fast lane.
The Build
Ed was not content to remain in a book or sit quietly at the end of the garden. He is an angry shed. One that refuses to stay put. "Most sheds hold lawnmowers" This one holds dreams and runs on pure rebellion.
Ed is built on a TVR chassis and has a 4.5L v8 engine.
A photo of my grandchildren and dog helping with the build. Their fun and love of building Ed inspired me to write the story of The Pig Escapade.
Born out of a love for books and a desire to share that passion with others.
The first job with the build was for the team at Race Spec Cages to fit the roll cage and the metal base frame.

Ed likes to go bottomless and show off his wheels. However for the Guinness World Record attempt he must dress appropriately and wear long trousers and cover his wheels. Rules are rules.

The question is not if he will run.
The question is… can the world handle it and will Ed become the fastest shed on the 20th September 2025 - NO! only did 96mph and clutch destroyed.
The Topcats team love Ed and are doing all they can to help him back onto the track. He will be back chasing the wolf and the Guinness World Record soon.
New clutch and race prepared for second GWR attempt by Topcats Racing.
Shed on wheels reaches record time. 123mph
There's probably a billion sheds in the world. Ed is one of only three to have cleared himself out of rusty bikes, lawnmowers and unwanted presents, bolted himself onto a TVR chassis with a big v8, dared to dream.
