Retro Rides Weekender - 19th and 20th May at Goodwood Circuit - We are VERY excited to announce that our second curated paddock will be SPECIAL SALOONS & MODSPORT cars. From an era of outrageous builds of firebreathing monsters, special saloons are one of the most impressive race series of all time. Home to some iconic cars including Doug Niven's Chevy powered Beetle and the mighty Baby Bertha of Gerry Marshall. The series ran in the 60s, 70s and 80s before Thundersaloons took over as home to many of the cars and produced new standout stars including Pete Steven's Carlton and the Morris brother's Peugeot 309. The Classic and Sports Car Club relaunched the series in 2011 and it now runs with original classic cars and new builds competing. To read all about the cars and the series head to www.specialsaloons.co.uk who we are working with to build up what we hope will be one of the biggest gathering of cars as they head into their 2018 season.
Not only will you get the chance to see these incredible cars in the paddock, but on the Saturday we will be running two 20 minute demo sessions with them on track at full speed so visitors to the Retro Rides Weekender can appreciate real cars being used properly and a taster to see them out competing.
