So I was at Goodwood on Saturday with LuckyP and Lou, took quite a lot of pictures and some videos (not ready yet).
A HUGE thank you to those two for taking me out on my first track day, it was a great day.
I've also met some genuine down to earth people, like 66longman and his 1986 911 3.2, Nick and his Cayman R (thanks for the passenger ride), and the chap with the black Renault R26R.

a small selection...







on the track:






If you want to see all the picture, head to my website @ http://www.thefroginator.co.uk/misc/index.php?albu...


And now here's something you really don't see that often.....

Stephane, I wish I had spoken to you, I am assuming you're French too, LOL ??? I was with my 12-year old and spoke to Peter from the balcony while you were near us with a fit blonde...

Anyway, I got a few pics too:

Yes I am from the other side of the Channel...
As for the "fit blonde" I was with, that's Lou, Pete's other better half wink

I like your pictures very nice, I only had my 35mm manual lens with me, wish I had my 200 too.
