Goodwood FOS

Amazing day out a few crashes though which wasn't nice too see especially the lambo race spec one :(

Anyone go on the f type drift experience? I got fast tracked through a mate and it was amazing fun, also went behind the scenes at mclaren and saw the Senna edition p1 they did looks amazing in yellow will green decals :)

I was by the straight just after Molecomb much of the day which seemed to be the place to be if you wanted souvenir supercar parts and a light dusting of straw! I'm glad no one was hurt and the marshals / stewards did a good job getting things moving again quickly.
I don't mind the odd car having an 'off' (as long as no one is hurt) - it's a good sign that the drivers are really trying and it's not usually due to recklessness. That the drivers have the freedom to push to (and beyond) the limit is very welcome. I wonder how long it will be before such events are regulated to the point where they become a parade rather than a competition.
 
I was stood by malcombe hay bales when the first bloodhound XE smashed into them (and us), then again for the lambo! First one i had to actually jump to the right! Ironically just before the XE i said to my mate 'this could be a good spot for some close calls', followed later by hearing the nascar start and my mate said 'lets hope they know how to go round corners'... well.. hah.

Great day, ill get some pics/vids up soon. Have a few of the smashed up cars, and some insane F1 noise.

Thorougly recommend going next year, basic entry ticket was fine - tho next year ill get grandstand for some time out of the sun. If it's a good lineup maybe VIP!

Ironically after discussing wanting an Imola M4 .. there was one on the stand - maybe putting in an order soon!

Yep, me too - sounds like I spent the day standing next to you Jimmy! I took 1800 photos and 80 videos including the Red Arrows and the Typhoon as well - I think it's going to take a little sorting through :D
 
Quite possibly - If you spotted three twats in michellin hats... ill remember sun cream next year!

I try my best to avoid taking too mny pics - been guilty of spending too much time behind the lens in the past! Plus i'm lucky in that ive seen all things airworthy quite a few times - the red arrows just serve to get me a beer and a better viewing spot :D

Can't decide if the Vulcan burnout, FXX K or the F1 downshifts were the most awesome! We tried quite a few spots but Malcomb is the best as you get pre corner braking, cornering (+crashes) and accel up the hill.
