Can't say much more than has already said about the crew that make this happen, legends, every single one of you ❤️
Loved the rides I had, John let me drive his Mini which was epic (can't find/not sure on username), @Krarl reminded me I should have never sold my 172 Cup, @The Psychedelic...
I'm at Sean's in Yateley tomorrow night then on Friday we'll take a stress free multiple stop route from his and probably aim for 1500-1600 at the BnB.
Worth it though. The drive through there last year was wonderful.
I bought an MSI gaming laptop to do my editing on, crunches through hours of 4-track, 4k, 60 fps footage with ease.
i9 processor, Nvidia 3060 graphics card, only a 1080 screen but 144hz, works well enough for me.
Cost about £1400 IIRC.
Here we are then, a short 3-minute video with a lap of each configuration.
First is the International (the longer) circuit which we ran in the morning last time. Second is the Coastal circuit which cuts out a couple of straights and a hairpin, and instead gives us the glorious "corkscrew".

My Cayman is kaput (for now) and not up to anything for the foreseeable future.
Instead my mate is bringing his FK8 Type R for me to abuse.
So I need to change the car I've registered for the day and add an additional driver.
Can I do that ahead of the weekend or should I sort it when I...

Now, you get to choose by tapping the screen to set where that focal exposure spot is in the FOV.
The trouble...
It's totally f***ing f***ed mate *
* misfiring...the source of which Mortimers have completely failed to locate and remedy despite having four weeks to do so. Grrr.
Lastly, I didn't do cameras et al, I just enjoyed the day. I got a little footage from my phone, and have dashcam footage of my runs.
So here's a quick 90 seconds showing an entertaining 3 series compact, a Spitfire taking off because Goodwood is always doing Goodwood things and it sounds...
How was the i3? Capable, in the right hands very effective, but I could only manage 4th in class (RWD under 2000cc) and 7th overall out of 28 entrants.
If I'd stayed in my usual class (RWD over 2000cc) I'd have won it by over 10 seconds :ROFLMAO:. As it was, I was beaten by 2x MX5s, and a...

To set the scene...
Our play ground for the day
The day's base of operations
Which had the usual Goodwood accoutrements to take an interest in between runs
20 years ago today, I did my first ever trackday in my 7 month old Clio 172 Cup. Google reminded me earlier, so here's a 33 year old me and some 172 Cup love :love:
