Default Goodwood Festival of Speed, 2009

The 2009 FOS is almost upon us. Having attend last year for the first time i can hoesntly say its the best show you are ever likely to attend - have a look on the link to get a flavor of whats on offer :

Goodwood - Festival of Speed - 'The Movie'

I'm not too sure which of the 3 days i'm going to go yet, i'm going make a decision a few days before to attempt to get good weather but in the meantime any fancy tagging along?

No you can't, you need to buy in advance.

I'll be there on the Friday , less crowded but still a great event.

Mrs and kids are in the flat land so I'm in any day. I recon Saturday is best as heavy rain Thursday night.

Boot is good for me otherwise I'll bring a mask so no one sees me in an RS4.

Will do but I'm 'out and about' so am getting picked up from Surrey area and then chauffeured there and back.

What's the convoy route anyway, just in-case we can head over in time?

What a cracking day. The sun was out, lots of good cars. Got to speak to Derek Bell, saw Lewis Hamilton and Jensen Button.

Didn't enjoy the 2hrs parked on the roads trying to get out or the accident my mate had with two arctics!

Will get some of the photos sorted.
