Goodwood Festival of Speed 2013

Recommended Posts

I think this years event was made for me -

 

'Goodwood is honouring one of the world’s most versatile and popular sports cars – the Porsche 911 - with the main ‘Central Feature’ at the 2013 Festival of Speed.'

 

Oh Yes !!! Can't Wait.................

I've just booked tickets for the Thursday, 4 Tickets retailing at £100 for free through the Goodwood FOS website. You need to register on the site and then book the tickets (up to 4 I think) for the Thursday. Then at checkout enter a Promo code of 'MMSTELE13'. I have received an Email from Goodwood stating the tickets will be sent out to me. It is a promo in connection with the Daily Telegraph, get in quick as a limited amount of tickets available free!..

Sure most people in this thread have already got tickets but just in case.....

 

I've got 4 of these free tickets for Thursday but I've not been very well and I don't really fancy the drive now, I'd rather recover for the national day. Does anyone want them?

Go early! You will enjoy, prepare to walk a few miles, the gates open around 6 or so, get there for 7-8 and avoid the crush and leave late.

Def get there early - like for when the gates are opening - otherwise hours and hours of queues to get in.

 

Food/drink a tad pricey, but good.

 

Print of as much info as you can from the Goodwood Website.

 

There are usually Timetables, Details of which Drivers are attending, What drivers are driving What cars and when

 

Good walking shoes.

 

My favourite place to sit and watch action is half way up the hill, usually there is some F1 and others Burn Outs etc, plus you can see the big screen further up the hill

 

 

Enjoy

Is anyone going on Sunday? I have acquired a pass in so going down to snap a few shots and talk to a few people, but would be good to meet up with any Corrado owners!

Love perks of different manufacturers! BMW keys get you very far at the Wentworth PJA golf these days and also at Silverstone Classic! ;)
