Watched this live over the weekend and the whole meeting was absolutely brilliant. This race was fabulous and I'd watch any of the Goodwood racing over F1 every day of the week. Amazing (and really interesting) cars, really talented field. Proper racing that. Top work GRRC! 👏

Proper racing this is. No strategies and undercuts in pits. Just 3 peddles and maximum fuel usage.

That must have been so awesome!! I am in the USA so it is a bit tough to get to the celebration. I am restoring a 1928 Morgan /GN special race car soon as I start my KZfaq channel called machines and Motors. I have been assembling a machine shop to support my building of pre war racers. Hope to see you there...

@nzsaltflatsracer8054 Ай бұрын

The 81 car didn't move before the flag moved so If they call that a jump & the start is supposed to be on the flag "drop" then the flag movement should start from the raised position not the lowered position.

Yeah, the GT40 is not designed for this track. Give it some open road and watch it disappear into the distance. That's why they switched from the 289 H.O. to the 7 liters of brute force.

@dhrracer Ай бұрын

If you say you start on the flag drop. The flag clearly drops from the starters hand before he raised it. To the announcers. If a driver is aware of a penalty and backs off and loses positions, he will not have a reason to disputes the penalty. In this case if Kirkaldy potions for the penalty to be reviewed and the penalty is overturned he will be the winner. Which he should be.

@@travislostaglia8861 The only reason the GT40s didn't start winning until they were sent to the US was because the corporate dickheads at Dearborn wouldn't listen to what John Wyer and Eric Broadley were telling them. If they had then the transmission, suspension and aerodynamics problems the car had could have been fixed much earlier.
