Its nearly that time of year again.....

I dont know about anyone else but im really looking forward to the Goodwood Festival of Speed (like I always do) and with it being just a few days away its begining to become a bit distracting.

So just incase everyone else doesnt share my enthusiasm i thought i would post up some pics from past FOS's.

Sorry to those who cant make it for rubbing salt in the wound

oo i am looking forward to it! Have never been before.

I am going on the friday - will i see much then or is it just a few runs?

Friday is really practice day, but having said that all (with very few exceptions) the cars run up the hill in the same way they would on sat and sunday they are just not 'officially' timed. Thats not say that they will be going slow though

Personally in a lot of ways I prefer friday as its not quite so heaving and you get to see a bit more.

My favourite pic, from 2005. I reckon FOS is the best thing I've ever done with cars.

Cheers

I couldn't resist posting this one up as well.

Its not very often that you see a modern F1 car being allowed to have so much fun.

I can't claim the credit for taking the photo though. A friend had the presence of mind to take a photo while I was just stood there gawping
