My First Ever Drive Up The Goodwood Festival Of Speed Hill Climb Was Overwhelming! BMW M3 CS G80

Every since I got my MSA Race Licence years ago I've dreamt of driving up the Famous Hill Climb at the Goodwood Festival Of Speed. This year I was invited by BMW UK to join BTCC Legend Colin Turkington for a passenger ride which would have been awesome, but after a change in the schedule due to a big crash earlier in the day, Colin was stuck at the top of the hill, and the M3 CS wasn't going anywhere!
That's when I offered to drive it, I had long sleeves and a Race Licence, the Events Team put in a call, i got the green light, I borrowed a helmet (that was a bit too small!) and a dream was fulfilled!

Ah bless you SuperGav! I still can't belive it's happened! I've lived near Goodwood all my life, been to the FoS since the 90s, and worked at Goodwood in part for 20 years, so to get this opportunity was a dream come true. Then I got to the top and it hit home! 😂

About 59 seconds, same as BTCC Legend Colin Turkington in the same car! So bearing in mind I lifted a bit under the bridge while shutting the windows, and slowed down for the last 2 corners as I caught 2 cars, I reckon that wasn't too bad. It was on Thursday and that would have put me 8th in the Thursday Shootout Practice. 😎👌
