Members of the Goodwood Road Racing Club had the chance to display their rarest, most extraordinary and beautiful cars at the Chicane Paddock during the #73MM. But instead of checking that out, I went to the public parking lot to see what the common man uses when visiting Lord March.
The large field providing all the parking space is across the road from the main entrance, but no matter how much Goodwood Ale you had, there are always friendly people in high-visibility jackets holding stop sings to make sure you cross the road in absolute safety. That’s good, because the cars around don’t necessarily possess the latest in brake technology.
I only had twenty minutes or so to spare before a race, so this collection won’t give you the full picture, but it’s enough to show you why Goodwood is the place to be in March.
