Title: Goodwood Revival 2016
Post by: PeterN on September 30, 2016, 20:04:43: I was fortunate to be able to attend the Goodwood Revival 2016 event that ran from 9-11 september. What an event. In the 1930s through 1960s racing was a popular happening attracting many people. People were looking forward to those wonderful days where excitement, joy, and social networking replaxed daily worries and activities. The Goodwood Revival Meeting enables visitors to re-live the spirit of those days. The Meeting was founded in 1998 by Lord March and has since seen an ever-increasing popularity.

Herewith an impression:

Good to see that it was more than just older cars being revived for the day. Your first image here is very apt with the guy and his two film Pentaxs and his partner with her film Bolex. These cameras were right up there in their day. All good!

Very well done Peter, i know how hard it is to summarize an event in "just a few" pictures.

Post by: Almass on October 14, 2016, 12:33:12: Nice series.

The last time I've been to Goodwood was at the Jaguar E-Type 50th Anni.

- Do they still have the food van with the Eggs and Bacon Baps for breaky?

- I have the impression that the ladies garments are more American 50/60's style than English.

- Is the biker riding a Norton single cylinder 500cc?

- 1. Yes, they still do.
- 2. Perhaps my shooting bias ;-)
- 3. Norton Mans 500cc from 1953 driven by Glenn English and John McGuinness during the Barry Sheene Memorial

I liked this one a lot: Rudge Special (500cc) from 1938:

and was truly impressed by their speed in the rain, even looking over their shoulder just after rounding a corner (Norton 30M from 1953):
