Carrera Sport days at Goodwood in the 80s
Discussion
was going through some of my old photos last night and i found these ones taken at Goodwood at one of the popular Carrera Sport days taken when i was 8-9 years old, was just wondering if anyone remembers these cars, knows of them or even has some pics from those great days? I remember somebody lending a guy his Diablo and he stuffed it into the tyres, the heated conversation afterwards was most enjoyable.
so i thought id share these with PH, excuse the poor quality!

I've got loads of similar photos taken at Castle Combe when The De Tomaso Drivers club and the Lamborghini club used to hold a Supercar Test Day, again, late '80s. If anybody's interested, I'll post some photos?

more pics the merrier, i think with the age of digi photography a lot of great old stuff is getting forgotten

Remember that Countach, and being blown away when it accelerated to join the circuit.

My best mate made a video for a Supercar Test Day at Castle Combe in the late '80's. I'll try and get a clip up on youtube once I know how to do it!!

love these pics, more pls
I have got hundreds of them. I will have to dig them out and scan them.
Some of the regulars included Vick Sawyer, Barry Martina (Heathmans), Ray Beverley (owned LAM 130 on a Muira SV), Stephen Keen (Muira SV), Huw Dundas (Muira SV & Testa Rossa), Peter Saywell (AOG numbers), plus many of the first F40s, F50s, Diablos etc.
Always remember that pink Countach (LAM 207) and a white one registered 18 5EXY. Pictures on my website, if you have a few hours spare!
Fond memories.
