Rule Britannia Goodwood Breakfast club June 3rd

[MiseryStreak]

I'm going. If I make it, had to bail on last month's as the engine got hot and started misbehaving in the dreadful traffic.



(Mine is the Elan)

Going much earlier this time. Weather looks ste, but then it wouldn't be the breakfast club without rain!

sorry to dissapoint you guys, gotta part on saturday so think ill give it a miss as i wont be in a a suitable state

let me know how it goes

[Sarge 4x4]

What a shame it's looking cold and wet for Sunday and Monday, thought we had seen all the rain for a while.

Weather looks like it's going to be absolute pants...unbelievable! To be honest I derive very little pleasure driving 110 miles down to Goodwood in the pouring rain and then walking around in yet more rain and February like temperatures. I will keep an eye on the forecast and then make my decision as to whether I will go on Saturday.

Looks like Summer has been and gone...yet again!!

You know that the weather will be great AFTER the Bank Holidays...

Shame, I was going to bring the Healey down and deck it out with some flags and bunting but I did a cold, wet one a few months ago and don't fancy another. If it's raining I'll give it a miss.

This is just PANTS , all the good weather whilst we are hard at work then come the weekend this praying for a change of wind direction

I was bringing a Healey down too but not if the weather is going to be the way the forecast is predicting. Absolutely gutted to be honest

Latest charts showing..we may just be ok , a bit chilly but off the edge of the rainfall by 8-9AM

heres hoping anyway

[AllezWasps]

Redex, I was thinking the same. Might be a bit wet on the way down but latest info (if you can believe it) is that it should clear over Goodwood by about 6am. Still going to be cloudy and cold but if it remains dry I'll take a punt.
Big caveat of course is that things tend to change forecast wise on an hour by hour basis....I'll keep looking at the forecast but as it stands I am coming. This for me was the standout Breakfast club this year and I was desperate to go. Lets just hope not too many people are put off.
Might have to keep the top on on the TVR though!

I'll be there with all the family this time. Getting there <7.30 so we can shoot off early if the weather is pants; hopefully it'll be either light drizzle or nothing....

My guess is the sheep will be the only ones allowed in the field just outside the circuit, so there may be more traffic chaos for those lazy sods who get there after 8.30

Aiming to be there before 8 - anyone doing a convoy?

It's in the diary - the Goodwood Cortina 1600E returns for another event

I'll look out for you. I'm sure our paths have crossed there many a time

Any plans on coming then Rich ? it could turn out alright after all.

[minifunclub]

Been peeing down this evening in Brighton, hopefully be ok in the morning!
Great AND British huh? got to be some rain involved at some point.

[shiftydave]

I'm currently about 10 miles away in Selsey and the weather is grey but dry. Hope to see some of you there!

[hurstg01]

'twas a great morning. Queues were small if any, weather was Ok after a little drizzle, marshalling was OK and the cars there were cool too!

Rain held off for the morning and was a nice and relaxed atmosphere I thought. Pretty good turn out actually but obvious a few had decided not to come due to the weather. Well worth the trip down though.

Was a good morning and a lot less congested than Supercar sunday. Only shame was that I couldn't bring the Elf as it had failed the MOT last week.
