A nice story about last years edition:

My aunt went there last year and she met jacky stewart.She asked him: Do you want to sign my shirt??Sure, and my aunt turned around and he signed it.Then Stewart said: I usually do it at the other side :D :D :D :D

[Matra et Alpine]

...my aunt turned around and he signed it.Then Stewart said: I usually do it at the other side :D :D :D :D
See, more proof that Scotsmen have the best pick-up lines.

Seriously tho' Jackie is a real gentleman and a very funny guy !!

[VtecMini]

Well, I'd absolutely love to give you rep for those pics, cos they're awesome, but I can't, for two reasons:

a) I don't have enough rep, obviously.

b) I'm too busy planning your untimely demise due to the fact that I'm not only insanely jealous, but also somewhat infuriated at my own choice not to go. I'm a bad, bad monkey. :(

On a more serious note, the show looked awesome, I saw the 1 hour special on it yesterday, even then I was kicking myself for not going. I am so definately, without a shadow of a doubt, resolutely going next year. I don't care if they jack the prices up ten fold, my car breaks down and I have to walk there or they relocate it to somewhere even further away! I'm going!

Once again, great pics, genuinely can't wait to see the footage. If you're struggling for server space (cos I'm guessing it won't fit into the size required by UCP) I'm sure someone will be able to help, I have 40mb or so spare if push comes to shove.

Thanks again. :)

[Matra et Alpine]

.......... I saw the 1 hour special on it yesterday,

WHAT ??

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!!!!!

What channel and is it being repeated ???????????

Anyoen got it captured to share - please - please PLEASE :(

[UK CARS]

[VtecMini]

WHAT ??

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!!!!!

Anyoen got it captured to share - please - please PLEASE :(

It was on straight after the rally on ITV... Thought you'd have been watching that... :rolleyes:

http://www.radiotimes.com/jsp/frameset/index.html?src=/ListingsServlet?event=10&channelId=26&programmeId=19398948&jspLocation=/jsp/prog_details.jsp

There wasn't a lot of the cars unfortunately, more of the time was spent stalking Jensen Button and that Villeneuve fella. (him? back in F1? pffffft)

Still well worth watching though. I hope somebody did get a capture of it.

Now a capture of the program with all the Tony Jardine bits edited out would be even better. But that's probably asking for a bit much.

[SL500]

holly crap!!!!!!
thats the heaven!
nice pics mustang123

[NAZCA C2]

Great pics man!!! I can't wait till Speed channel shows the Goodwood festival on TV.

Don't worry, it was a shite programme.
They were more interested in interviewing Jenson Button than looking at any of the cars.
They did have a clip of the Renault Alpine Le Mans winner going up the hill...

[Speed Twelve]

Long time no see .... Im DB9, except im not anymore :D. Ive been having computer troubles as some of you might know so I havent been able to go on and have had to make loads of new accounts.

I have pics of the crashed Lambo Murcielago my friend took on his SLR camera but he has to get the film developed. We were really close when it happened! The car was covered in straw bales and had to be uncovered before he could get out because of the scissor doors ... the whole front was mashed and there must've been some serious chassis bending ... it was the most insane yet exciting thing ive ever seen. Ill post my friends pics once he's got them developed. Looked out for you Mustang but didn't see you. We were lucky to see the crash as we only went further up the hill to see the Bowler Wildcats tackle the off road track. To get the pictures we had to cross the track on one of the crossing points then snap a few photos as it was being towed off. Did you get one of those silly radios that are only set to the Radio Goodwood bandwave?

[Mustang]

exellent james! i thought the NEC was good but this is just outaa this world! wasnt the mc12 at the nec?? again wowowowowowwow! did challenger go? i wish i went :( definatly going 05 :)

yes i got the redio and there were so many crashes, when the ferrari 612 tried to set off doing a burnout it failed so the guy stopped and the ford GT was speeding towards it tyrees alite and only just stopped in time :p:p

Also did you see the dragster?? when they started it up the stupid 60 Year old had it in reverse so it went speeding backwards nearly ran over the canera man and a marshall and went straight into the bales of straw :eek:

[VtecMini]

You'll need a TV card that does video capture. Then if you connect a VCR to the TV card and stick the video in the VCR, you should be able to record what's on the video to an mpeg, AVI or whatever.

If you have no TV card, find someone who does!

[CassioC]

WOW. Just awesome. I *need* to go to this event next year. It seems to be the only place in the world where you are actually able to get close to some of these cars, not to mention being able to see them running...

Great job! Awesome pictures!

not only can you get close to them you can sit in quite a few of them, and is you are special like the owner of Ford then you get to drive the new Focus rally car up the track and crash it into hay bales :p

what is the chance though that you will ever see any of those cars anywhere else in an event together, acccept for next years FOS ;)

[911_Turbo]

Awesome pictures mate. Unfortunately for me i live in Australia, and one of my places i want to go to is the Goodwood Festival Of Speed, so these pictures make up for it.
