Thanks for the link. The goodwood revival would be my thing, definitely. The 
date of next year is not published yet but on their website, I have 
pre-registered my interest in next year's event and will mark it in my diary 
with fat letters. A LUG meeting would be a very good(wood) idea, but 
shouldn't it be the evening before so we can shoot the cars the whole day?...
Best regards
Didier



>Its a date! The Festival of Speed which ranges from the dawn of motor sport

>all the rest is in mid-summer. The FoS gets very busy though and is a cross 
>between a garden party and a hill climb!

>The Revival which is a whole different thing; where Goodwood becomes the 
>race circuit that it was 1948-66 and the WWW2 airfield that it was, too; is 
>in September. The Revival is more like being on a film set/racecourse where 
>the starting line can easily top $40m with Le Mans winners, last of line, 
>massed ranks of Cobras (Daytona coupes and regular), Jags , Chevvys, 
>Ferrari 330s SWBs and so on.

>Both dates vary a little with grand prix. Le Mans and similar events so

>A LUG meeting perhaps, next year?
