When is it?

I've always wanted to go to Goodwood, but looking at the map, I think it's just a bit too far (I'm about 20 miles east of Manchester) to go, and get back for work on the Monday

I went to Goodwood in 2002 (i think) and it was a great day.

Anyone know ticket prices this year?

Due to the voting system in Germany, Governments are always made up of coalitions of different parties. At the last election, an almost unprecidented result saw the CDU/CSU (rough equivilant of the Conservatives) go into Government with the SPD (rough equivilant of Labour)

admission only tickets are £20 on friday, £35 on sat and £42 on the sunday

Yeh, I know Huddersfield. My uncle and auntie live there.

I'm about 8 miles east of Stockport.

thats a great mix of world class drivers and awesome cars and bikes. interesting to see Peter Brock going, his VK commodore will seem out of place amongst all the europian vehicles

shame i live in the wrong hemisphere and on the wrong continent :P
pay for my ticket LS?

it looks good, but certainly from what people have told me, its really busy and overcrowded. I am thinknig of going down to the revival meeting this year though, sadly the festival is just too close to le mans and the british GP for me to afford it at that time of year As glyn says though its a long way, bit shorter for me, but still a long way

24 Heures Du Mans 18-19 June 2005

Man my geography synoptic paper is partly on a propsed national park in the Goodwood area, so I will have to spit frogs and lizards at Goodwood for being an 'obstruction' 'polluting' 'unsightly' and so on

You mean despite your apparent thorough disklike of contemporary F1, you'll still go to the British GP?

Let me guess.....you're going for the GP2 race?
