I was given three afternoon shifts at the gate between the pedal car paddock and the 'real' paddock.



The laminate list on the left of the photo above shows all the passes that will NOT let you into the pits.

The range of people we turned away went from the completely innocent to the active fraudsters.
( One grey haired old man had folded his 2016 pass so you couldn't see the date! )

There were over 70 Austin J40 pedals cars lined up and they were very popular.





I really liked this mustard yellow one.



Plus the matching car covers looked the part too.



Here are just two examples where the parents were also racing drivers at Goodwood.





They raced on Saturday and Sunday morning and the crowd really cheered them on.



With Jackie Stewart waving the chequered flag at the finish line.



Later on, I saw that Jackie had signed a few of the drivers' racing overalls too.
