First Timer Suggestions - Goodwood FOS
Discussion
Hi All,
My Wife and I are looking to make the trek from NZ over to the UK for Goodwood in 2019 and had a couple of questions we hope anyone that had been to the Festival Of Speed in the previous years could help with.
Obviously the FOS runs for four days, is it best to get tickets to all four days, or just specific days? It looks like day 1 is a goer for seeing cars in the paddock, and day 4 with the shootout cant be missed, but is it worth sticking around for day 2 and 3? Obviously 4 days at Goodwood is a big chunk out of our trip over to the UK, but i wouldn't want to miss out if something awesome normally happens on day 2 or 3.
Im presuming traffic on the days will be shocking around the venue, so getting there early is best, even if just for better parking? If we came from a nearby town (due to accomodation), would it take forever to get there in traffic? How bad is the parking (and it looks like there is allocated areas for parking depending on color, are there enough spots or might one miss out if they arrived late and have to find somewhere else to park)?
Are there any other events around the same time (Early-mid July) in the area that might be worth going to?
Thanks
