Festival of Speed - Friday (Pic heavy)

[JamieITR]

Well luckily the weather was pretty good for this today, only a couple of brief light showers. Loads of awesome motors on display and on the hillclimb and rally stage, just not enough time to get it all in one day really. Have to say i'm glad i got there really early to get the static shots before all the crowds appeared.
Here's quite a few of my pics.

Cheers for the comments . The blue Bugatti thing is a 'Bugatti Chiron 18.3' according to the programme.

Lol, doesn't seem to be a lot of details about it anywhere but according to wikipedia it has a W18 engine it shared with a couple of other Bugatti concept cars, so even bigger than the Veyrons!

Brilliant pics dude, I HATE that I'm so far away from Goodwood so as to make it not really feasible for me A lot of fabulous exotica there. One thing that struck me is, despite it's obvious copious ability, the Nissan GT-R doesn't half look bland in that company. That's why Porsche owners aren't bothered, and Ferrari owners aren't even aware of it's arrival heh. It's not enough just to be fast...

Great pics, i'm looking forward to going on sunday

 

[Andy.]

Got there at 6.45am, so pretty much just as it opened, was fairly empty in the race car paddocks area but still quite a few people in the Supercar and Style et luxe areas even this early.

 

[peter182]

nice.

 

[jon_r]

Crickey you were early. Was a cracking day, really enjoyed it. The rally stage was well worth the hike as well.

Felt a bit fustrated that hardly anyone seems to go for a time anymore apart from Justin Law and Anthony Reid. I'd much rather watch an F1 time really going for it rather than the continual (bad) burnouts.

Great pics, hard to choose a favourite. I'm officially 107% sure who you are now, first spotted you in the Supercar Paddock around 7am, then up towards the top of the hill (on the far side) around the lunchbreak and the start of the second runs...am I right?!

Lol, yep, and i'm definitely sure who you are now! I think i must have seen you 6 or 7 times during the day, i kept meaning to come and say hi, particularly when you crossed over to the side i was on at the top of the hill, but i'm ashamed to say at that point i was slightly worried about losing my good spot i'd got!

 

[ukaskew]

I will say hi at Goodwood/Thruxton/wherever I spot you next
