Goodwood is a very "British at its Best" sort of place so in my experience tools, wheels, cans and biscuits are always safe in the "garaged" paddock. Give yerselves time when you get there to set your stall out and others will respect your space.
I have never had a problem leaving stuff out whilst on circuit,

We'll be there in a black MX5 turbo and a charged Monaro, not sure which ones going off firstlaugh last year was a bit slippery if i remember

if your car is anywhere near the DB limit, dont bother turning up as you WILL end up failing the drive by

I have a Mazda RX8 with a 95db exhaust at 6.5K (static)but when pressing on I was told I exceeded the 96db drive by - quite a few times.

coasting past the mics took all the fun out of it

Just to be clear the joining instructions we have sent are for the Sunday Service not the track day.

Track day instructions will be from Goodwood themselves so if you've not had anything from them yet, get in touch with the booking office. The contact details should be on the email you received after booking your place on the Goodwood website.

Just spoken to Goodwood ticket office, they didn't seem to know whether instructions would be sent from them direct to track day attendees or would be sent over to and distributed by PH.

General advice is to get there from 7.30 onwards, as briefing etc. is from 8 usually.

Hmmm, I have spoken with them and they aren't sure who said about the confusion as their isn't any as far as they are concerned, they send track day instructions out and I believe yours was sent on the 21st of November but I think they are going to call you thumbup

Hi guys, I'm wondering what the etiquette is on showing up in a boring car?

Was coming in a delorean, gearbox- is leaking, then a 205gti, wiring loom is borked, and now have the options of a diesel yaris or an old toyota pickup.

Typically at goodwood breakfast clubs I'd just park a non-theme car in the grass park, and look at the fine offerings, but I'm guessing as with other sunday services all cars are 'on display'. To put it frankly a yaris or hilux don't cut the mustard, and I feel somewhat guilty about taking up a space that a 'better' car could use, but the selfish part of me wants to see all the tasty metal that you will no doubt show up in.

Does anyone know if I can park in a quiet spot, but still gain entry? I know moon on a stick.

I'm guessing an email to goodwood is beast.

Regards

John.

If your on the list turn up and park as directed. The whole point of SS is that there's variety.

According to the list on the calendar I've got a place for SS but I haven't yet received the email with the details. What do I need to know (this will be my first SS - be gentle!)?
