There are no car park badges, you just follow the signs into a nice big field. Then walk into the circuit. On the back of the badge is a QR code which they will scan every time you enter/leave the circuit.

I'll keep an eye out for you

I'll be well disguised. Wouldn't get past the gate in that outfit.

16 F1 GTR's now apparently

If only mclaren would run their car instead of just a static display.

A quick question about the F1 (and one I should really know as the longtail is my favourite car of all time) but my understanding was no longtail is road legal, however #19R has been driven this week on plates?

[ecsrobin]

But are they properly road legal or is there a bit of twisting the rules?

I like the discreet OZ branding hidden within #19R's squiggles. It was also liveried as a lark car for racing I believe.

[ecsrobin]

So I guessed correctly earlier on in the thread, Mclaren have indeed brought along:

It was tony woods a lister Jaguar but not sure on what happened. The Merc is front end damage and the Lister rear end.

A great day. Extremely cold so going to wear the jumper tomorrow.

Slightly disappointed by this years evening entertainment it didn't appear as though much was on and now the guilty pleasures stage was in the middle of a food hall so you had people wanting to watch music fighting for space with people wanting food!!! No entertainment in the great hall that I saw and the acts within the big top were not as good as last year.

And to top it off the fireworks started 10minutes early just as I was grabbing a quick warm drink and bite to eat.

But racing wise it was brilliant and the demo runs were superb so well done Goodwood on listening to the feedback.

How is FOS better value for money?

It's £60 per day so £120 for 2 sat and Sunday and I can get sat and sun at the MM for £120. So both the same cost. I would say the MM offers a lot more action.

I'll share my views in the morning but for now here's a photo I took from today from the last race on my phone.

Does anyone have any photos of car 26 in the Sopwith Cup (peppermint green A35)? We are an independant team with no sponsors or financial backers. The car was built and race prepared mostly by the owner in his garage in the evenings and at weekends.

After a spirited drive, we finished 5th overall, which we think was pretty good going! Thanks in advance.

It made me laugh how low the driver was sat (or possibly a tiny person driving)





These are straight from camera and I have a few more very similar once I've actually edited my images I'd be happy to send some across if you want.
