GOODWOOD FESTIVAL OF SPEED

Post by steve wright »

Guys – I’m off to the FOS on Sunday 26th… anyone care to join me? It would be great to have a bunch of us drive down together as there are some great roads that way. I’m in East Sussex so will be heading off along the A272 west until Midhurst, then dropping south, leaving about 7.30am to avoid the traffic. I hear the factory is again supplying a delectable array of racing cars.... Cheers, Steve

I'm in for that. My plan has changed and am now just going for Saturday day. What do you reckon to leaving earlier than 8am? Maybe try and catch some semi-free roads on the way down? I am in Richmond so meeting up would be easy. Will PM you my mobile no.

Let me know what you think....

Best,
Will
