It was a great day, the weather was kind and the cars were awesome.

There's nothing quite like the sound or smell of an F1 car.

I will get some photos up later on today :D

[Al115]

I was so hoping that there'd be a Volvo in their Touring Cars class... nope! :(

I've attached a few piccies - have hundreds and these were simply the first I found! :D

[Tomcat]

Always liked the 599 a very wide car though not sure how a local guy gets round the back lanes in Haslemere so easily

I went yesterday for the first time...all I can say is if you think your a petrolhead and you haven't been to Goodwood yet then you are very wrong. Easily the best car show I have been to and nobody minds you looking over the cars touching them ect. I have to agree with the above the 250 GTO is a stunning car and second, imo, only to the 288 GTO of which Chris Evans had his white one in attendance.

Looks stunning in white but I still think I prefer it in red :)

Russ you must have been there the same time as me as the 250 is in the same place with the same people around it ;)

Unfortunately that's all the pictures I have as I left my camera in the car and the phone which I used to take pictures went flat :(
Still got the memorys and a few videos on the camcorder so didn't do too badly :)
