Goodwood Festival of Speed 2008

Hi,

Did anyone go to Goodwood Festival of Speed this year. I went on the Saturday, got a few autographs, including Pedro de la Rosa and Marc Gene, full report and pictures later...

Anyone else go? Post your comments here. Good if we could get this topic stickied.

I went on friday - twas awesome. I went on the toyota f1 simulator and was plesantly suprised that i went quicker than kamui kobayashi the test driver. Toyota definatly have the best hands on stand there and as usual the f1 cars were nothing short of pure heaven. Quite happy to see some american racers there as well especially the nascars.

my 3 fav pics i took: (56K WARNING!)

apparantly the 1997 penske, was tehre and paul tracy got to drive it.

By the time i realised Lewis was in the drivers paddock he was just finishing his stint of autograph signing, that shot i took of him was when he was walking over to his Mclaren SLR road car

unlucky, mate

ah at last year on goodwood, i gor r.schumacher's autograph.

the irritating thing about women in racesuits is the distinct lack of cameltoe. Oh well, nice pics all the same

Particularly impressed by the ones of the planes LS - must be an absolute bitch to capture them - saw your album and facebook and was amazed.
