Nice one Wu
I dragged the better half along on Saturday this year. Fantastic weather, superb racing. Spent much of the day over with Bruce at St Mary's.
Love the Revival – Goodwood is a great circuit from a spectating point of view (you can get so close to the action) – I urge anyone who gets a chance to go along.
Oh… Who here remembers the Outspan Orange??? Made my day seeing that on the 50 years of Mini parade

Some great pics there Wu. Have you any more?
I'm not sure about the Revival now. When it first started it was great, and the whole dressing up, on track action, old motors in the paddock etc is fantastic. But can't help thinking it's lost it's way a little- it's all gone very corporate and just feels like another jolly garden party for Lord March and the beautiful people. It's still a great day out and I would go if it were nearer but it needs to take a good look at it's self and try and get back to what made it special in the first place. Luckily the Le Mans Classic, although there is a small corporate presence has managed to keep the balance right and has managed to retain it's original charm.

kind of agree, but i think it's more that it's the same as it was and we have been too many times. Or seen pics too many time. I think i'll give it a miss next year as it is the same near enough year in year out. But then if you were going first time, you'd still have an amazing time. It IS a truely wonderful event.
more pics....not that much varied stuff this year. Was aiming for one or two people specifically.
and anyway, what's wrong with us beautiful people having a jolly and a free sunday lunch...
