356s at the Revival
Does anyone know why there are no 356s on the entry list for the Revival this year (or Porsches for that matter)?

Seems a shame after Chris Harris result in the Pre-A in 2015 and the streamed coverage.

Re: 356s at the Revival
Given the number of quick 356s in the UK, it amazes me that none of them have had an invite.
All I can assume is that, the Goodwood organisers think that they are not "special" enough!

Re: 356s at the Revival
Agree that the Porsche representation was a bit light. Is it true that there wasn't anything in any of the races? We displayed a lovely blue 356A outside the pop-up Porsche Classic workshop and I saw an early split window on the grass near the main paddock

Re: 356s at the Revival
There were no races suitable for 356's.
If there were you would have Howards car and RB's if he hasn't sold it!
No chance for anyone else.
It should have Stevens 356 but that's the way it works.
Can't argue with it as its one of the two most successful historic car meets in the world.

I can't sing or dance. Will that be a problem?

Re: 356s at the Revival
No, not that one – the silver split-screen coupé outside on the grass near the paddock. The blue one belongs to a customer (with whom you had dinner) of Robert Barrie's.

Re: 356s at the Revival
Missed the split-screen coupe, Keith (despite being there three days, well, two and a half as I abandoned Saturday for the pub due to the weather).

Re: 356s at the Revival
In the parking place there was a lot of attention for my Betty:

Funny that people think it's a genuine Speedster, although there are lots of giveaways that it's a replica (apart from the badging 'Built Not Bought')...
On Sunday I was even asked to park my car next to some other 'racy' cars right next to the entrance...

Although Porsche was 'All Around', I also was surprised that there were no Porsches racing (901's, 356's...)
