Goodwood Festival of Speed
« on: June 19, 2017, 11:34:27 am »
So,

Anyone else going?

If you have any questions you want me to ask of any Le Mans teams who are there (apart from what the f***k happened Toyota?), I will try to ask - let me know.

I think Toyota missed last year, so they might pass again based on this weekend.

Wow, what a Festival of Speed.  I cannot recommend this enough.

To anyone who has never gone this is a petrolhead garden party.

Is isn't about nail biting racing, it's about seeing cars to die for and being able to talk face to face to people behind them about the cars and races.  This isn't an event to watch behind a 5m catch fencing, this is about up close and personal with people who were part of it.

It is not Le Mans and cannot replac it, it's the complete compliment to Le Mans.

If anyone is interested, the event gets live streamed and juicy bits are available on YouTube.
