[hurstg01]

Hi all

Who else is going to Goodwood's Festival of Speed this year?

1. hurstg01 (Greg) - Thurs and Fri
2. Le Man [hopefully] - Fri
3. Patrick - Friday
4. countachal - Sunday
5. Lark60 - Sunday
6.
7.
8.

Quote the above in your reply with your name if you are coming

It would be good if there are a few people all going on the same day(s) to have a mini AF-F1 meet up, put some names to opids etc etc. Le Man, Roger_ph and I did this last year and it was great; a beer in the infield and a wander around the cars

Also, we have a possibility of potentially 3 F1's being there - #27R on display and hopefully #13R [depending on an arrival ] and #16R [depending on the speed of the Mclaren workshop], so the potential for great photo's is there

Hi Patrick

Yes, you get your hand stamped on the way out [you have to ask as they may think you are just leaving not to come back]

I go back and forth alot for food, change of clothes [if it rains], more sun cream [hopefully!....] etc etc etc

If you want to, PM me your mobile number and we could all meet.

Hi Phil

I'll try to post some pics on Thursday if #27R is there then. If I get any literature on Thursday about what cars are there [are you interested in all cars, or just Mclaren F1's?] I'l scan it in for you all to see

... Yes, it was really great! Unfortunately I wont be able to come this year - hopefully again next year!

[LARK60]

There on sunday.Most years there are Mclarens to see
Best show of the year,well worth the 3 am drive down 250 miles!

[hurstg01]

Good to see you back on here!

I hope it rains on the Saturday only then

[carbuilder2002]

Hmm Lark 250 miles so you must not be far away from me then?

[LARK60]

Cool, it was there a year or 2 ago [static display only on the large Toyota stand], but it's got such presence it'll be good to see it again; hopefully it'll run up the hill this time

[cabrio92]

It's a good year for both japaneese endurance icons. what a souvenir to see 787B driving in the streets of Le Mans !

[hurstg01]

That'd be great to both hear and see going up the hill - a real screamer
