Goodwood Breakfast Meet - June (Lots of pics!!)

[Alex_225]

Today was the Goodwood Breakfast Meet for June. There were some amazing cars there and a nice variety as well. I took my new camera along so I'll let the pictures most of the talking, there's plenty of them!

We followed these two for part of the journey

Then these in the car park

Then the rest of the cars

One of my favourite cars of the meet

This was my actual favourite car of the show

What appears to be a very rare TVR Sagora

Great pics there matey, that's my 182

 

[Alex_225]

Haha awesome mate, must admit I'll spot a RenaultSport a mile off.

Although it was smaller than last months, I preferred the meet for it. Was a good day.

Nice pics.

Shame I couldn't make it today.

lotus carlton is epic!

Some of the stuff the guy on the front gate sends away to the public car park is ridiculous !

seriously? i just assumed he hadn't applied for show stand, like fcs, but turned away! idiot, the marshall not the carlton owner.

 

[Christopher.]

Goodwood, u just turn up and hope he lets you in, it wasn't too bad when the breakfast clubs started out but now its so busy its really bad. Also the whole event has become so commercial nowadays its a joke. Most of the paddock is filled with stands for company's to promote there products, making less parking spots for people like me who used to be able to get in no problem.

What was the theme today? Seems a nice fair variety of cars there.

 

[Christopher.]

Post-1970 sports, performance and GT cars, plus a special celebration of the TVR marque

 

[Alex_225]

Yeah I think you have to apply in advance for a space on the track. Last month I'm pretty sure that Lotus Carlton was parked up along the track.

***Actually a different Lotus Carlton but still capable of being in the paddock ***

Few Valet Magic cars there mate!

What's the new camera? Shots are fantastic!

 

[MarkCup]

As I understand it the guy on the gate makes his decisions on the spot, then once past him, someone else decides if you're deemed worthy, clean, and unique enough to grace the track or end up parked in the paddock,

 

[Christopher.]

TBH iv been on the track twice although the guy that decides about the track said to me 'nice williams you have there' lol

 

[MarkCup]

Yeah, but you're shpeshial

Thanks mate, it's a much better camera than I'm used too. It's a Fujifilm Finepix S4000 so basically a bridge camera. Not quite up there with an SLR but I'm of the thinking it's down to the photographer rather than just the camera that makes a good photo. Not that I'm an especially good photographer but I've seen photorgraphers with thousands of pounds worth of camera equipment still taking very average photos.

There is an option to pre-register as well (https://www.goodwood.co.uk/breakfast-club/contact.aspx) but I'm guessing plenty of motors turn up spontaneously though and then the muppet on the gate only lets the obvious ones in when they do!

[Christopher.]

im getting there very very early for the next one, sporting legends is one of the themes i got on track with

 

[Alex_225]

Reckon they'd let a racing blue, Gordini striped 182 and a Twingo Gordini in to the next one then?? hehe

 

[Christopher.]

If u get there at about 6.30 they do

 

[Englebert]

So lovely!

 

[Alex_225]

Sh!t the bed that's early haha. I might see what I can do though. lol

 

[Christopher.]
