Amen to that...for me this was the best one yet!
I got to play with MIG and TIG welding courtesy of our wonderful sponsors, met up and camped with some old friends, met a whole bunch of really cool people in the show and at the campsite, watched someone pay £60 for a t-shirt with a Dutch mountain's name on it at the tat auction, finally got a car on track in the Autosolo in the morning (trust me it's tougher than it looks), and came back with a ton of cool merch and a burnt neck.
Can't wait for the next one ☺️
Huge thanks to the RR team for making it happen...it's the friendliest and most inclusive 'scene' I know (and I've partaken in a few over the years) and the highlight of my car show year 🙂

watched someone pay £60 for a t-shirt with a Dutch mountain's name on it at the tat auction 🙂 Someone asked what size it was. I said it’ll fit a 6N Kev heard…. 60! I bought a tee shirt for £60 Doh!!! |

Hi. What a weekend! Ian and co brilliant, organisation top drawer, marshalls great, the drivers briefing clear and concise and yes I bought some tat!  I ran the mini with the blue checks on it. I said to Ian we had the full Goodwood experience...from the misfire early on the sat morning run to the strip and fix in the paddock and just making it out again to the back of the last runs for the morning. I had most things I needed with me but ended up borrowing a socket adapter from the classic touring guides and getting plugs out with duck tape inside a socket (mates idea) For those who noticed i traced the smoke we had in the assembly area after my final run to a melted towing cable that had slipped it's mounting Sat night I had a bunch of lads come over and we all put our heads together on a possible fuel fix. I had said I had no idea what was going to happen and I was certainly right! What a meet! Thanks all |

Thank you to all the organisers and people involved with the smooth running of a great show 😁
First time camping at an RR event and it was great, was slightly worried driving down in the rain that it might be a bit of a wash out but the weather was perfect for both days, the tat auction was hilarious, the burgers on the Saturday evening were 👌 and the mix of cars (and scooters) was excellent as always.
Even my not-particularly-into-cars girlfriend enjoyed herself aside from a bit of sunburn 😅
Also the occasional flypast from the spitfire was a nice added bonus!

Als a big dankjewel from the Netherlands. It was good to be back. Great event, the upgraded showers in the campsite where top notch, show was great, track action was fantastic to see. Nice demo cars.
And a special remark for the catering on site! Be it a bit expensive but it was great foo and loads of choice!

Great work by the team as always, looked especially stressful looking in from the outside, hopefully any issues don't impact on future events as they're still very much a minority of bell ends. On a positive note we did a quick campsite walk last night and this morning and apart from a few odds and ends of litter and a few stray tent pegs it was very good on the whole.

Huge thanks to all involved from Retro Rides.
The track time was huge fun, well worth the money. Camping and facilities more than up to par and the show is one of the most friendly and diverse around.
I've done three Goodwoods and a Shelsley event now, and they still manage to feel fresh and exciting.
I'm still in awe at the effort that the RR team put into convincing Goodwood, of all places, to let us lot in.
Long may it continue!
And, if there's any way of it getting back to them, I'd like to thank the Goodwood staff, particularly the marshals, for not only being there and doing their jobs, but for having a bit of fun with us. A thumbs up from someone who spends the summer watching professionals slide multi million pound Ferraris around is worth a lot.
My only criticism is that there's so much cool stuff going on, it's very easy to miss bits!
