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!)?

I've just had some great news from Goodwood.

They've also got some Off Road driving experiences available on Sunday thumbup

The experiences will be in either BMW X3's or X5's and will be priced at just £25 per head for 15 minutes but with 2 people in the car so you actually get a 30 minute experience for your £25, the same as the powerslide experience it will be cash only payable on the day. The experiences will run from 0830-1200 and will be on a first come, first served basis

To book your experience head for The Jackie Stewart Pavillion.


VERY IMPORTANT: Make sure you bring your driving license if you want to take part in either experience.

See you all on Sunday thumbup

Right, I have had a terrible thought cross my mind; Do I need to bring both parts of my driving license for the trackday?

My Mrs paid for it so she got the instructions email, hence I don't have access to it right now. This morning we packed everyhing up so that we wouldn't have to go back home after work. But neither of us have packed our paper counterparts.....

Yea I've done loads of trackdays at Goodwood where they say they need the counterpart - never actually had it with me and never been so much as asked about it.

Looking forward to it now!

Be interested in your opinion of my recently acquired turbo'd 5, and pick your brains on improvements

Just to clarify...

The PH email says the relevant postcode is PO18 0PX, but that appears to be some country pile; the estate itself, I presume? Horsey types and cleaner cars then mine will be.

But the circuit's Website says the postcode is PO18 0PH (spooky coincidence, etc), with the entrance being on Claypit Lane.

I've never been to an event here before, so where do I head? I'm guessing to the circuit and NOT the postcode given in the email?

yes Head for the Motor Circuit - there are plenty of signposts to help you.

Entrance is indeed in Claypit Lane.

I have a feeling it was free last year. I was hoping to get some as well.

Would I be allowed to bring my well behave dog along? I've seen dogs previously at Mercedes World SS, but don't know the rules for Goodwood.

Dogs are allowed on a lead when cars are not operating on the circuit (racing/trackdays)
