Goodwood Festival of Speed 2022 / 2023 / 2024
- Thread starter KiNgPiN83
- Start date
We had an amazing day yesterday - I took my 11 old son and he totally loved it. We left the house at about 4:30am and got back home at 1am 
The event has expanded massively since I last went in 2004 and it was rammed, but did get less busy after about 4pm. There is so much to do and see now that you really need 2-3 days to cover it.
Some of my photos
This cared for Lambo was parked in the Supercar car park, right by the main entrance and was receiving a lot of attention
The Porsche 75 center piece
A collection of previous McLaren F1's - The difference between Hunt's '77 car and the aero 2008 car is huge.

Fairly significant impact for that CG901 - sideways, rear wheel first into the scenery is a recipe for some pretty solid mechanical damage.That poor McLaren F1 GTR, Layton House CG901's and BMW M1 Procar.
I think he got lucky and was closer to straight on. Still, that'll be an engine and gearbox out for a deep inspection at the very least. Suspension mounting on the gearbox is a problem there, same with the diff, both taking impact loading. However, it's all fixable. Still not a cheap incident though.
Epic photos! The Scooby was the one to get my heart rate up the most. It's like it has been on a journey with me; I remember when it was just an "ugly bug eyed Scooby" but that thing is so awesome with the benefit of hindsight.
Also, the Daytona is really growing on me!
What's the crack with the Porsche Macan though? Sticks out for being vanilla lol.

I blame my tiredness for posting that one
. At the end of each batch they had multiple course cars that would race up the hill (I think they took paying customers up). So I used them for practise.As compensation here are some other photos from the same drift session.
Finally done going through all of them so here they are.
I wish I was more creative with some of my shots
The star of the show and the porsche 919 Hybrid
This was interesting to edit as I saw myself improving through Porsche 75 moment and into the sunday shootout. And damn does it look good when you don't use a shutter speed of 1/8000 sec. I don't even know why I did that during the drift session.

Could you share a high res version of this? 3440x1440 would be niceVettel in the Williams FW14b

I’ve had the YouTube feed on in the background all day today and I don’t know if I’m imagining it or not but there seem to be far fewer cars going up the hill than in previous years.

They've changed the structure of it I believe..
I’ve had the live feed running in the background since day 1 on Thursday and have noticed the same.
The Timed Shoot Out today was only 10 cars. They have created 7 categories, so most of them only have 1 car in them
Thursday was around 1 hour of content, repeated through the day

Just leaving to attend today, really looking forward to it! Hopefully the weather holds out
