Went down to the Goodwood Revival this year as it was celebrating 50 years of the Mini. What an event! it is absolutely brilliant :D
It is on ITV4 at 8pm tomorrow
The classic car show in the car park before you even go into the circuit is huge. It included this "Mini bus"

There was 60's Mini Cooper racing each day - very close racing and cars being driven really hard!

Great pics Duncan, especially of the planes. Is that 2 spitfires or hurricanes?
My brother worked on the tail fin of that Vulcan. Always remeber him saying how high it was off the ground. They look and sound fantastic.

Yeah, we did the same but next time I'm getting dressed up. Doesn't need much - white mechanics overalls and a flat cap and your good to go!
Did you watch it last night on ITV4? Racing looked awesome again, Adrian Neweys e-type is SO well sorted it's unreal!
