Anyone been watching the Goodwood members meeting? Been trying to watch the live stream on and off today. It's pretty interesting, particularly with the snowy conditions!

The two 1275Gt's are fantastic, particularly Nick Swift's. Never really been a Clubman fan to be honest but his is just awesome. Think the highlights might be on TV in a week or two apparently so look forward to that.

I love to see the old cars but hate it when they get wrecked. A 1963 Lotus Cortina smashed into the tyres and rolled.  55 years old and wrecked today.  I do not think it's right.

Yes - that looked nasty...

 

gave me a bit of a fright as I will be there soon  abusing my mini at the Bailey Sprint in May.

 

Im entered in the road going up to 1500cc class.

 

Will try to keep it on the track ...

 

Its a good event with wide variety of cars . google/you tube it.. I don't think there is an entry fee to watch as its a low key event 

 

Great cars and wish i could have been there

It is a shame but the cars were built to be raced - it would be worse if all you could do is look at them in a museum

I couldn't make it this year but the weather was terribly cold. Not often you get an event like that with snow!

Looking forward to going to the Revival later this year!
