Goodwood Members Meeting - 9 - 10th April 2022

Yep my favourite event of the year - see you there 👍👌

Transport for the weekend - 6 litres of a V12 



Pics to follow 

Fabulous. I saw some of it on the tv and will no doubt find more on YouTube.

Is the 3rd picture above the chain driven Fraser Nash (known as the owlet) driven by Nick Swift? I saw that race on tv (hopefully it is on Youtube ) I am sure the race was red flagged near the end because of a serious accident but didn't hear the outcome of that.

How you know that you have properly arrived at a Goodwood invitation only race meeting 



You will more than likely need a very sorted & planted one of these 



A fuel filler cap & neck being larger in diameter than the cylinder bores in the lump of a V8 engine helps too



A properly sorted roll cabinet with integrated tool draws gains you extra brownie points 



But you haven't properly arrived  unless your kit comes with complete with a coffee machine & snack box 

Love Owlet!

A load of randomly parked classics were on display 

Bonhams hold a auction at the 3 main Goodwood race events - this race modified Beemer 2002 Coupe being my pick of the offerings - offered at probably a fraction of the original build cost - it changed hands for a little under £29k which providing the engine wasn't goosed was a fair price 



Nicely executed Jag XK140 and just 500 miles since restoration but probably the left hand drive held it back on price - sold at £57,500 - a very wise purchase at this money 







Plenty of other temptations on offer but I'm currently moving cars on - not purchasing so hands remained firmly in my pockets 



Still a good few posts left from the photo file yet to come
