Paul Morcom Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 Heading to Goodwood for the first time this coming weekend for the sprint on the Saturday. I will be arriving on Friday evening - does anyone know if camping is available? Also any recommendations for nearby B&B or hotels? Quote
MartinH Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 Paul I'm fairly certain there's no camping on the circuit, we've booked into a Travellodge at Fontwell about 5 miles from the circuit. Mega quick track you'll enjoy it. For those who like to know such things there's 6 Westfields entered, one a double drive: George Newrick Graham Frankland Martin Hepworth Paul Morcom John Tomlinson David Hussey Peter Steel Quote

melt Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 Can anybody tell me what time the track opens for the first practice runs. TIA Mel Quote
Paul Morcom Posted April 23, 2012 Author Posted April 23, 2012 There is a drivers briefing at 8:30am, so shortly after that I would guess. Quote

tcc21racing Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Oz is on hold at the moment due to the other half and a change of plans to invest in bricks and mortar Well il see you guys on Saturday rain or shine Quote
davidgh Posted April 28, 2012 Posted April 28, 2012 Well -- Goodwood was horrible from almost every point of view . . . . . . . Quote
davidgh Posted April 28, 2012 Posted April 28, 2012 Very wet. Nastily slippery. Badly delayed -- culminating in a really horrible accident to a Caterham driver requiring a rescue helicopter and causing a delay of well over an hour -- after which the event was abandoned. Most Westie drivers did not get a single timed run -- but, in truth, the accident had saddened us to the extent that our enthusiasm was non-existent anyway. Quote
MartinH Posted April 28, 2012 Posted April 28, 2012 Horrible is a fair desciption, said accident was an impact with the pit wall, it happenedd in front of some of the Westfield drivers waiting for their run. Nothing good to take away from this event. Quote
