Looking at going to Goodwood festival of speed next Sunday wondered if anyone else was, or fancies it, and whether there was a run organised there.

Thoughts anyone?

Yes we will be there in the Midas Yellow T350c on sunday, if anyone going has requested the "TVR sticker for your other car" i have them now and will take some along to goodwood as it will save you paying postage
Making the stickers £4 instead of £5.
If you mail me via my profile i will mail you back with our mobile so that you can call us at goodwood.
See you all there Dave & Diane.

A good spot is outside the house (on the house side) by the cross roads, or by the grandstand... you get to see them come round the corner (slippery) and blat up the hill ( ).

Get there early, and make the most of the day... there's LOADS to see... viewing gets a bit "average" further up the hill IMHO...

Also, opposite the main paddock is pretty good for viewing - the blat up the hill, ease off (pops and bangs) and then blat further up the hill.

Both locations are also a good place to see them come down the hill slowly after the runs...

The Blue Beast is on static display at the Cricket Pitch all weekend. I've no transport once I get parked up on Thursday night, so I won't be too far away.....
If you see me loitering, say hello please

I solved the Digital Camera problem with a gadget that suck card contents onto a 20Gb Hard Drive. Batteries are the only other issue.....
