Re: 73rd Goodwood Members Meeting - March 21st and 22nd 2015

Well worth the 500 mile round trip today. After following McLaren for 20 years,i was treated to 16 Gtr's. Fantastic.
Highlights were speaking to Mr Lanzante, seeing Derek Bell next to Harrods car & meeting the owner of 16r,who let me have a sit inside! What a nice guy.
The demo laps were great,apart from the nervous spins,that could have done a lot of damage.
Thanks again Greg for meeting up. I met Sami,but my accent may have been a bit much for him.
Well done Lord March for getting together this great gathering.
Enjoy tomorrow guys,hope that cold wind goes away

If anyone s interested I have the very thin aluminium front badges from #04R and #06R slightly battered and wavy from being round several racing circuits and then prised off prior to restoration but willing to part with them if anyone wants to make an offer

Re: 73rd Goodwood Members Meeting - March 21st and 22nd 2015

The cars were fantastic, but the highlight, as always, is catching up with old friends [MSO, Andy74b, all those within Lanzantes, Le Man & his partner in crime, Arjan,Patrick, LARK60, tak43,] and meeting new ones [the owner of #16R and the owner of #19R, Cabrio92, Sami and more].

It was a great weekend!

Glad you all had a magnificent time and the photos and cars look amazing.

Is #07R still going to be wrapped in the Jacadi livery after they missed it this time round or did the owner decide not to in the end?

Love #16R, it's really come out well.

Don't know if #07R is still going to be wrapped - there are more celebrations this year, so hopefully it will be
