More Goodwood Festival of Speed pics

[Lee]

Another amazing year for the FoS. Once again I didn't cram it all in to one day, so next year I'm going to camp and do at least 2 days. It was a long day too. Drove part way Friday, then drove from Bedford to Goodwood, and back home to Staffordshire all in one day. Then I had to drag myself out on the lash of course! 21 hours I was up!

The fully gallery is here: http://www.rapidpants.com/images/gallery/motors/2008/FoS/ If any of the pro's want to offer any advice it would be appreciated.

Well worth installing the pic lens plugin to view the gallery: http://www.piclens.com/

A few of my faves:

Will have a good look later, but you might want to display them slightly smaller as unless you click on them they look very pixelated/jaggy.

 

[DebV6]

Nice pics! Would like to have gone this year.

 

[Fletcher]

Must be a problem with Internet Explorer as they look fine in Firefox. They're best viewed in the gallery really. I didn't want to resize them down below 1024x768 really, seems a shame.

First one has a better BTG time than Jon R's datsun

Nice pics. Did anyone see Hamilton when he was in the formula 1 paddock? just before he went out on track. He had his dad with him, and his GF. Just wondered if he is going out with that Nicole Shirzinger (sp) from Pussycat dolls. Becasue she looked strangely like her... was only about 10ft away from me aswell.

cool pics

Just had a good look through your gallery, love the picture of the white 8C (pic #98)

Have to say I'm very disappointed with your efforts Lee. Only 2 shots of females.

Didn't you see the Alfa Romeo girls on their stand, they were MINT!!!!!!!

Car pics look good mind.

Bet you had to stop off at a "gentlemans club" on the way home what with the lack of orange, lycra clad bints for you to letch at

 

[Timmay]

some beautiful cars there

I made it home in time for a few beers in town.

Goodwood is all about the cars. No need for dodgy looking models spoiling it.

Totally agree, tbh it's the one motoring event I'd make the effort to go to outside of a touring car race etc. All the "car" shows are chav and slapper infested shedfests now :dapprove: I hope goodwood continues to buck the trend and doesnt attempt to draw in the pikey audience.

Great pictures, i spent 9 hours walking round there on sunday. If i wasn't so tired and in fear of being in a que for days in the car park i think i would have stayed till the end! A fantastic day out and easily the best car show i've been too recently!!

I think the cost of a ticket alone should keep the chavs out.

No veyrons there?

 

[MarkCup]

Yep. The absence of the tandoori bints is very welcome.

I go because I want to see cars, not some vaccuous tart who's squeezed into some lycra number that's plainly 3 sizes too small, with the result being enough to turn your stomach at 20 paces.

 

[MarkCup]

No veyrons there?

I counted 4.

+1.
1 in the Hotel carpark and 3 on the Supercars Stand

You can see 3 of them in my gallery. One was a standard one, the other 2 had been touched by different coach builders.
