Felt very ripped off,never again, Bah humbug.
The early years of the festival & the revival were great, no fences for the drivers to hide behind, no autograph hunters, no bouncy castles etc now it so bloody crowed just another day out for people who do not have a clue about the history of the cars, we now call it the Festival of Greed!

Going to the Spa classic event this weekend (2nd time), 650 cars running entrance ticket is 30 Euro for the whole 3 days and to park the car is 12 Euro for the whole 3 days, location to die for open access all areas, all paddocks & pits just like Goodwood used to be. Classic 6 hours endurance is something else and the Master historic F1. How many DFV's does it take off the line to send you the heaven!

For any one tired of what Goodwood has become I could not recommend it more
