Festival of Speed / Revival Meeting
Festival Of Speed 3rd July 2009 - Course Full
The Festival of Speed is far more than just a hillclimb: it can justifiably claim to be the world’s biggest and most diverse celebration of the history of motor sport and car culture. It is the only occasion where you will see the greatest competition cars and star drivers from all eras in action: everything from 19th century steam carriages to current Formula One; fabulous racing motorcycles; classic rally cars to 3000bhp dragsters; plus motor sport legends like Moss, Surtees, Fittipaldi and Andretti rubbing shoulders with today's hottest properties such as Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button, Fernando Alonso and Petter Solberg.
Revival meeting 20th Sept 2009 - Places available
This event gets more and more popular each year - The circuit stages a historic race meeting for the kind of cars and motorcycles that would have competed at Goodwood during 1948-1966 - it is advance ticket only and is a superb day out. But the Revival is far more than a series of races for historic cars: it is a magical step back in time and a chance for visitors to revel in the romance and theatre of motor racing as it used to be. The lovingly restored circuit is unchanged from its heyday, and great lengths are taken to ensure that everything on the site is exactly as it was. This means that most visitors wear appropriate period clothing and no modern vehicles are allowed within the circuit perimeter throughout the weekend. There are also theatrical sets that bring the past back to life and a celebration of the aviation heritage with some stunning aerial manoeuvres throughout the skies above this WWII former aerodrome, as well as a fantastic selection of rarely-seen pre-1966 aircraft on static display in the Freddie March ‘Spirit of Aviation’.
We are offering a day at each meeting on the Friday and will include tuition on motor sport photography. We will take you to some of the best spots around the track to photograph the cars from golden ages of motoring.
You will meet us at the event in the morning and we will spend time photographing the cars at various locations. You will also have time during the day to visit the many stands and shops.
Included in the day is a ticket for general admission and the official programme of events.
The cost of the day are £175 and numbers will be limited to 6 so that you get some 1-2-1 tuition. If you would like to book email us to reserve your place and send us the booking form with your deposit. To find out more about the festival visit their web site at www.goodwood.co.uk
