As soon as we got to the Goodwood Breakfast Club this morning we realised we'd made the wrong decison, Wilton Wake Up seems to have captured what used to be so good about GBC. Well worth the extra few miles drive in the future I think.
Great photos by the way.
What was wrong with GBC? I was there and it all seemed fine, and well organised, with the growing numbers that are now attending.Great photos by the way.

GBC, at least Supercar Sunday, has grown into a public show with huge numbers attending, which brings with it the challenges of people running around all over the shop, unfortunately in a very self-centered manner. It's no longer for enthusiasts only, but for the general, social-media frenzied masses.Wilton Wake Up was refreshing in its size and populous; a small, pleasant affair with families welcome and enough space to walk around and see the vehicles, and all the better for it IMO.

Been attending since nearly day one and the 2 posts above this absolutely sum up my personal feelings about GBC, nothing more to add really. wal 45 said:

Been saying that ever since the first Wilton Supercar meet then breakfast meets..Great photos by the way.
BUT Goodwood are to restrict numbers to the GBC so it might be more tolerable crowd0wise.
