The Goodwood Road Racing Club 2018 Yearbook
76th Goodwood Members’ Meeting 17-18 March 2018
Wood who won easily in his CooperBristol. In many ways the Scotsman was the perfect winner, his being a sister car to the Cooper-Bristol in which Mike Hawthorn himself raced at Goodwood on Easter Monday back in 1952. Completing the podium were Eddie Williams in a glorious Maserati 250F and Paul Grant driving his own Cooper-Bristol. Another Members’ Meeting favourite is the Derek Bell Cup in honour of the local hero from nearby Pagham, who won his first-ever motor race at Goodwood in a Lotus 7 prepared on the family farm. Sadly there were gaps in the grid, some not ready to risk their period Formula 3 machines in the freezing weather. These included past winner Andrew Hibberd, so it was poleman Jon Milicevic who had it all his own way in his Brabham BT21. On a cold and slippery track, past British champion Milicevic’s drive was a masterclass in keeping these punchy little 1000cc single-seaters off the treacherous grass, while joining him on
the podium were Frenchman Thierry Gallo – who had repaired his Tecno after a practice shunt – and Simon Armer in his March 703. A depleted field still provided a fine race in tribute to Derek Bell, who also won the last ever F3 race at Goodwood in 1966, just before the circuit closed. As well as a great programme of racing, there were more of those highspeed demos that have become an everpopular part of the Members’ Meeting, allowing more modern cars to be put through their paces on the circuit. This year it was the turn of Group 5 Special Production cars, as well as a superb grid of Formula 5000 racers. Invitations to take part in both demos had been enthusiastically accepted, and not since their heyday in the 1970s had we seen so many F5000 cars on a British circuit. These runs are always eagerly anticipated and we were in for a treat. Conditions, however, were far from ideal for the hugely powerful F5000 machines. On Saturday they gathered
Christoph Widmer leads the field away at the start of the Derek Bell Cup in his Brabham-Ford BT18A (opposite) before falling back to sixth by race end. Jon Milicevic went on to win in his Brabham BT21 (below), followed home by Thierry Gallo second in his TecnoFord (bottom) and Simon Armer third in his March 793 (22).
Track conditions slowly improved during Sunday afternoon, allowing the early 1960s sports-racing prototypes in the Gurney Cup to race unhindered. Named in honour of the great ‘All American’ racer, constructor and team owner Dan Gurney, the race quickly developed into a straight fight between the Ford GT40 of David Hart (below right) and the Shelby American Cobra Daytona Coupes of Andrew Smith and Olivier Hart. These three had a race of their own at the head of the field, David Hart running home the winner followed closely by the Cobra Daytona of Andrew Smith (opposite), with Olivier Hart third in his father David’s sister car (below).
Special, built in the 1930s by John’s brother and now raced by Paul Baker. Sadly, it was forced to retire on lap 6. Otherwise it was all great stuff and another interesting addition to the event’s eclectic race programme. No sooner had we recovered from the antics of the weird and wonderful vintage machines than it was time for the race we’d all been looking forward to. In memory of the great American racer and engineer Dan Gurney, who died just weeks before the event, the Gurney Cup gave us a truly superb grid of powerful sports prototypes from the 1960s, true ‘big bangers’ all. This celebration of the sports car career of ‘Dan the Man’ – during which he raced
for McLaren, Ford, Porsche and Lotus – was the race every entrant wanted to win. It looked like being a straight fight between the Ford GT40s and the Shelby American Daytona Cobras and that is how it unfolded. Immediately out in front was David Hart in his gold ex-Willy Mairesse GT40, chased hard by the Cobra Daytonas of son Oliver – driving the car owned by his father – and Andrew Smith, while behind them came a battling set of GT40s led by Craig Davies. Olly Bryant threatened the leaders early on in his Cooper-Maserati T61, but his challenge ended all too soon when he retired on lap 4. Up at the front it looked as if teenager Oliver would get the better of father David in the battle of the Harts, but a trip into the gravel at Lavant put paid to another feisty drive from this talented youngster. So it was David Hart who had the honour of winning the coveted Gurney Cup ahead of Andrew Smith, with son Olivier recovering to third and setting fastest lap along the way.

Once again, the Club calendar was filled with opportunities for Members to get out and about to visit a wide range of race meetings, automotive factories, and many other areas of interest to motorsport enthusiasts. To kick off this part of the calendar, the Club recreated one of its first-ever international trips: a visit to Bologna in the centre of the Emilia-Romagna region. During the four days of the Supercar Valley Trip, Members were treated to behind-the-scenes tours of Ferrari, Lamborghini, Pagani and Ducati. To round off this once-in-a-lifetime trip, Members were granted a tour of the private Righini Collection. Housed in a 15th-century castle outside Modena, the collection boasts a wonderful array of automotive treasures. The undisputed star had to be the Auto Avio Costruzioni (AAC) Type 815, the first car Enzo Ferrari built after leaving Alfa Romeo. Only two were produced, and this is the only remaining example. From northern Italy to southern France, the Club then ventured to Monte Carlo to take in the sights and sounds of the biannual Grand Prix de Monaco Historique. With help from our friends at the Automobile Club de Monaco, Members enjoyed seaside accommodation with private speedboat transfers to the harbour each day, where they enjoyed private hospitality overlooking the famous Monaco streets. There was also exclusive access to the event, including the pit lane and a private preview of the new Rolls-Royce Cullinan. This was the first visit to Monaco for many, and certainly cemented the event as one of Europe’s premier historic race meetings. A month later, the Club ventured back to France to take in the Le Mans 24 Hours. After a drive from Calais, Members settled in trackside and prepared themselves for an action-packed weekend. Ahead of the race, Members had the chance to join the ‘great British welcome’ in the
The Festival of Speed 12-15 July 2018
No Festival would be complete without the antics of the freestyle motocross riders leaping to ridiculous heights over the GAS Arena (below) or Terry Grant and Mattie Griffin performing their smokewreathed stunts at every opportunity (below right), and it appears such exuberance is catching, with Maria Costello and Sarah Stokoe putting on an impromptu show of their own while descending the Hill aboard their BMW LCR sidecar combination (opposite).
blue sky the Red Arrows did what only they can do. Sébastien Ogier skipped between the trees on the Rally Stage at the top of the Hill, while Emerson Fittipaldi took selfies in the Drivers’ Club with Jackie Stewart, Johnny Rutherford and Richard Petty. And isn’t that Martin Brundle in Dan Gurney’s Eagle, fulfilling yet another of his dreams. Perhaps double world champions Mika Häkkinen and Emerson Fittipaldi had it right. “The Festival is unique – I know of no other place in the
world better than Goodwood,” said Mika. “Magic,” said Emo, “it’s all here, the past, present and future … and the people.” And Le Mans winner Neel Jani spoke for many a first-time visitor: “You don’t know where to look next, scared you might miss something.” Getting stuck in for the 17th time was Jenson Button, this time in the John Surtees Honda RA301, tended to by a small army of Japanese mechanics. After one of his runs up the Hill, JB drove back to the House, and appeared on the balcony to be interviewed by Mark Webber, while down below there was Button mania as the fans waved pink flags emblazoned with the world champion’s button tattoo. And so, 25 years done and still the Festival delights, surprises and excites. The Silver Jubilee summer of 2018 will be a tough act to follow. But, then, we have said that before.

To fully appreciate the excellence of the 21st-century racing car you need to pay your respects to those intrepid pioneers who raced more than a century ago. A class entitled ‘Clash of the Titans’ was the place to start. The machines were fast, but basic – the drivers both brave and skilful. Thanks to the collectors who have saved and restored these cars, we can enjoy this magical step back in time, a good example being Evert Louwman’s Napier from his museum in Holland. Built in 1903, this 100 horsepower machine was one of the fastest cars in the world at the time, reaching speeds of over 80mph in an early race in Nice on the Côte d’Azur. It was also the first racing car to compete in the British Racing Green livery. George Wingard, a former Oregon Senator and restorer of great vintage cars, has been one of the Festival’s most loyal and enthusiastic supporters. Now in his 80s, George wasn’t going to miss the 25th anniversary and brought his rare Cottin-Desgouttes GP-Hillclimb
for us to enjoy. In 1911 this monstrous machine won the Mont Ventoux hillclimb, an unpaved course which climbed 5300 feet in just 13 miles. “So 1.6 miles up the Goodwood hill shouldn’t be a problem,” said Mr Wingard. We are accustomed to seeing Pikes Peak champion, and FOS favourite, Rod Millen tear up the track in his record-breaking Toyota Celica, but this year the irrepressible Kiwi also brought something a little older. He built his Darracq Grand Prix car around an engine which was raced at the French Grand Prix in 1906, and naturally Rod was keen to go for a timed run. Another Goodwood stalwart who gets what this event is all about.
Intrepid Pioneers Better known for his exploits at Pikes Peak, Rod Millen took to the Festival Hill in his Darracq Grand Prix (opposite), built around an engine which had competed in the 1906 French Grand Prix. And joining him in the ‘Clash of the Titans’ class was another long-time Goodwood supporter, George Wingard, in his 10.5-litre Cottin-Desgouttes (below left), winner of the Mont Ventoux hill-climb in 1911, while lined up in the paddock could be found a Napier 100hp from 1903, nearest the camera (below), and the Itala Grand Prix that finished in 11th place in the 1908 French Grand Prix.
same day Auto Union’s Bernd Rosemeyer died while trying to go faster than his friend and rival. Still with top speed in mind, also from 1938 and in the ‘silver paddock’, was the Wanderer W25 Streamliner. Three of these elegant cars racked up enough points to take the Team Trophy in the Liège-Rome-Liège endurance race in 1938 and 1939, the two years immediately preceding the war. Not to be outdone, Audi Tradition brought the wonderful Auto Union Type C for Hans-Joachim Stuck to drive on the Hill. Hans-Joachim’s father was one of the few drivers to tame these six-litre, V16 supercharged silver beasts back in the 1930s. The aforementioned Rosemeyer won the European Championship decisively in 1936 in a Type C and was victorious a year later when he won the Donington Grand Prix.
The opposition came, of course, from Mercedes, who dominated the 1937 season with their all-new frontengined W125, powered by a thunderous 5.6-litre supercharged straighteight. With 650bhp in a car weighing 750kg, it would be almost 50 years before we saw this kind of power again in Grand Prix racing. The ever reliable Jochen Mass was entrusted with the throttle pedal on the Hill. This was a summer in which the men from Stuttgart and Ingolstadt surpassed themselves.
No display of Mercedes-Benz Classic racers would be complete without the magnificent 300SLR (below), this the car in which Juan Manuel Fangio finished second to Stirling Moss in the 1955 Mille Miglia, while Hans-Joachim Stuck took to the hill in an Auto Union Type C (below left) of a type raced by his father, Hans Stuck, in 1936. Star of the show, however, was the newly restored chassis of the Mercedes-Benz T80 (opposite), built in 1939 to challenge for the Land Speed Record. The war meant it never ran.
Effortless Elegance No Festival would be complete without the Cartier ‘Style et Luxe’, which made its 23rd appearance in 2018 with another glittering line-up of 50 of some of the world’s most fascinating cars from the past 100 years, including in the ‘Two Horses’ category the prototype Citroën M35 from 1970 (below) with a 1952 2CV AK van beyond; from the ‘Bright Sparks’ category (below right) a Baker Electric and beyond an Edison Electric, both from 1923; and from the ‘Motoring for the Masses’ category (opposite) a 1914 Ford Model T Runabout and a 1919 Model T Shell Tanker.
You just can’t get away, it seems, from electric cars these days. They creep up silently behind you in car parks, you find them plugged in at supermarkets, and you are ‘whooshed’ by a Tesla at the lights. You would not, however, necessarily expect to find them at the Cartier ‘Style et Luxe’, but this is where you discover there is actually nothing new about the electric car. This highly rated design competition, judged by the great and the good from the worlds of fashion, technology, music and the arts, has been a big draw at the Festival for 23 years. To be found on the lawn outside Goodwood’s Stable Yard, this is a haven of tranquillity away from the action on the track.
A very topical class this year was ‘Bright Sparks’, a revealing snapshot of electric cars from the early 1900s. Of particular interest was the Edison Electric from 1912, designed and built by the man who came up with the first reliable light bulb, the prolific and brilliant American inventor Thomas Edison. Utterly unrestored, this wonderfully simple yet luxurious car could travel around 40 miles before needing a charge. Amazingly, collector Albert Fellner’s Cleveland Electric was on the road 13 years earlier, in 1899, more than a century before the new Jaguar I-PACE, the Tesla or the Nissan Leaf EV. The class was completed by a Wavely Model 22, a Colombia, a Baker Electric and the Milburn Electric, also from the Fellner collection. The ‘Motoring for the Masses’ class aptly described 110 years since the introduction of Henry Ford’s gamechanging Model T. Everyone loves a Model T, not least the delightful Runabout, a potential winner if ever there
At the centre of the Silver Jubilee was the maker of those iconic cars from Stuttgart. Porsche was enjoying its 70th anniversary with their third, and their most ambitious, sculpture outside Goodwood House. This technically impressive structure – designed, as ever, by Gerry Judah – was a spectacular reminder, if any were needed, of just how many great racing cars have worn the Porsche badge over the decades. A truly sensational line-up of cars gathered around the coach circle each day to illustrate the company’s success in the broadest variety of motorsport categories, winning championships at every level. There were winners from Grand Prix racing, the Le Mans 24 Hours, all the great endurance classics, sportscar racing, GTs, rallying, rallycross and the Paris-Dakar desert raid. It’s not every day you find a Can-Am 917/30 ‘Turbopanzer’ parked outside the front door of Goodwood House, with daylight fireworks shooting skyward from the roof.
A long-time fan of Porsche’s finest, the Duke of Richmond hosted this 70th birthday party. “I have always loved the cars,” he told us, “and have been lucky enough to own quite a few over the years. You can feel their racing DNA and they are made with such impressive attention to detail. “At the Festival, I have driven some of their most famous competition cars, the 908/3 Targa Florio winner being my absolute favourite. It’s the perfect car for the Hill, so nimble, so forgiving to drive, and the noise of that lovely engine behind your head. You sit very far forward, with your feet over the front axle, so you don’t want to hit anything. This weekend we
70 Years of Porsche Celebrating 70 years since the founding of the Porsche marque, a glorious line-up of some 46 of the company’s most important road and racing cars had been assembled for the 2018 Festival, including their very first, the Porsche 356-001 (opposite) that made its debut in March 1948; the 1956 Porsche 550 Spyder (below left), this the example adapted and raced by the Swiss engineer and early proponent of aerodynamics, Michel May; and the Porsche 356B Carrera Abarth GTL (below), created in association with Porsche by Abarth for GT racing in 1960, winning its class at Le Mans that same year.
Always keen to introduce Festival’s knowledgeable spectators to racing machinery they may have never seen before, in 2018 the Goodwood team managed to entice seven of the best American Flat Track racers to the Festival. More used to racing on dirt track ovals, Jeffrey Carver Jr and his Harley-Davidson XR750 (below), Shayna Texter and her Husqvarna FC450 (below right), and Brad ‘The Bullet’ Baker and his Indian Scout FTR 750 (opposite) were, however, totally unfazed by their very English surroundings and put on a fabulous tyre-smoking display.
all weekend. ‘Foggy’ is very much a Triumph man these days, lending his fame and popularity to the resurgence of one of the great names in motorcycling. He was out on the Hill aboard a three-cylinder 4-stroke from 1970, the all-new Speed Triple RS ‘Foggy’, built in tribute to the man himself, and he gave us a sneak preview of the Moto2 bikes that will all use Triumph engines from 2019 onwards. The unique Foggy Petronas FP1 he raced in 2004 was also in action, but ridden by its current owner Chris Wilson.
For the first time the American ‘Flat Track’ dirt oval racers also came to Goodwood, a new challenge for the guys who spend their racing lives sliding sideways. Past GP world champions Kenny Roberts and Freddie Spencer both emerged from the thrills and spills of this American series, which nowadays is dominated by the two great marques of the American motorcycling scene, Indian and HarleyDavidson, with further able support offered by Ducati and Husqvarna. But it is Harley-Davidson’s XR750 and the Indian Scout FTR 750 that are at the sharp end of this sport and Indian rider Brad ‘The Bullet’ Baker was on maximum attack for his debut at the Festival. For bike fans, the Flat Trackers – motorsport’s version of rodeo riders – were a welcome, noisy and colourful addition to the ever-evolving Festival.
Fabulous F1 Fresh from a ‘triple header’ of Grands Prix in France, Austria and at Silverstone over the three previous weekends, seven of this year’s Formula 1 teams made the trip to the Festival, to display their more recent cars, including Renault with a LotusRenault E20 (below) as driven by Kimi Räikkönen to victory in the 2012 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, and Aston Martin Red Bull with Sebastian Vettel’s Championship-winning Red Bull-Renault RB8, also from 2012 (below right), while MercedesBenz brought their 2016 F1 W07 Hybrid (opposite), driven on Sunday by Valtteri Bottas.
At the half-way point in a season of 21 races, and despite the demands of a recent ‘triple header’, the Formula 1 teams were as keen as ever to get close to the Festival’s fanatical fans with a mixture of their most recent and most iconic cars. And their new CEO came too, Chase Carey from Liberty Media much in evidence for the second year running. The Silver Jubilee summer was as much about the ‘young guns’ as the established stars, with a new ‘Brit Pack’ – comprising Lando Norris, George Russell and Jack Aitken – on Goodwood duty for McLaren-Renault, Mercedes-Benz and the Renault factory team respectively. Lando was
grappling with a manual gearbox and a peaky Cosworth in an immaculate M23 McLaren from 1974, while Jack was given the 2012 Renault-powered Lotus E20, and George was provided with the familiar feeling of a hybrid AMG Mercedes W07. All young men to watch. From the 2018 grid came the ever charming and cheerful Valtteri Bottas for Mercedes, Stoffel Vandoorne to share the M23, and Brendon Hartley who was on weekend leave from Toro Rosso to join Porsche’s party in a 911 GT1-98. For those who come for the doughnuts, Valtteri did not disappoint, while those who came for the noise revelled in the V8 wail of Marc Gené’s Ferrari F60 and Patrick Friesacher’s Red Bull Racing Renault RB8. Sweet music, lots of tyre smoke and, best of all, very few aids or gadgets. Mr Carey has brought ‘ fan zones’ to Formula 1, but then there can surely be no better – or bigger – fan zone than the Festival of Speed on a sunny summer afternoon.
Billy Monger set an impressive time of 48.31s in his Taatus-Cosworth F4-16 specially adapted for handcontrol use only (below right), while Jörg Weidlinger ran home third in the thundering 1991 BMW E36 V8, fitted with a Judd Formula 1 engine (below). Porsche decided not to run their 919 Hybrid Evo, so it was left to Volkswagen to set fastest time of the weekend in their all-electric I.D. R (opposite). Fresh from smashing the outright record at Pikes Peak just a few weeks earlier, Romain Dumas rocketed up the hill in a stunning time of 43.86s, to record the second fastest time ever seen on the Hill. Who knows what next year’s Shootout will bring?
looked just the job as he braked from 115 mph for the off-camber left-hander at Molecomb. The grandstand erupted. Stopping the Montblanc clocks at 48.31s gave him the lead, but not for long – Mike Skinner kicked up the dust to set 48.25s in his Toyota Tundra, only for historic racer Michael Lyons to draw a gasp from the fans with a 47.86s in a F5000 Lola T400. Fastest among the petrol-driven cars, however, was Jörg Weidlinger who set a time of 46.43s in the glorious Judd V8-engined BMW E36 Pikes Peak challenger. This was all too much for 2002 winner Rod Millen in his Pikes Peak Toyota Celica and for the skilful Jeremy Smith, taming the Indy-winning
Penske PC22, a car categorically not suited to climbing twisty, narrow hills. Many were rooting for Justin Law in the Jaguar XJR but, despite recording a touch under 153mph at the line, Justin was thwarted. Now it was time for battery power. In the run-up to this year’s Festival all the chatter was about the chance of an electric car beating the all-time record of 41.6s, set by Nick Heidfeld in a McLaren MP4/13 back in 1999. Surely the Porsche 919 Evo would beat it, but they decided not to give Neel Jani a crack at it this year. How about the Volkswagen I.D. R that had so recently triumphed at Pikes Peak? Will we see a new record today? That was the big question. First to run was Peter Dumbreck with a spirited drive in the fabulous new NIO EP9, and this lowered the bar to 44.32s. All to play for, then, for Romain Dumas in the lighter VW, who made 43.86 seconds look all so easy. Next summer will surely see these times tumble still further.
The Goodwood Revival Meeting
7- 9 September 2018
length of railway track carried the aggregate 89 tons of steam locomotive 9017 ‘Earl of Berkeley’ – one of the ‘Dukedog’ class assembled in 1938 to combine an 1899 ‘Duke’ boiler and cab with 1906 ‘Bulldog’ frames. Racing cars aren’t alone in often having complex histories … Many expressed surprise to see the locomotive in steam all day long – it’s amazing just how convincing an onboard sound system and smoke generator can be. Perhaps less complex but equally charming was the farmyard, complete with live sheep, pigs, chickens and a (quite ripe) manure heap disguising the entrance to the Drivers’ Club. The yard’s rusting, corrugated-iron-clad Dutch barn not only kept the stacked straw dry, but preserved two abandoned ‘barn-find’ classic cars. Where did Goodwood find that wonderfully evocative barn? On eBay, no less.
On track, right from the opening Friday evening Kinrara Trophy for GT cars to Sunday’s closing Sussex Trophy for 1955-60 sports-racers, competition was often breathtakingly close. Phil Keen’s Lister-Jaguar drive through the entire field from a pit-lane start to win that final Sussex Trophy was Revival racing at its finest – as was the Niklas Halusa/Emanuele Pirro partnership’s performance with the unique Ferrari 250GT ‘Breadvan’ to win the Kinrara. The Glover Trophy for 1½-litre Formula 1 cars was also perhaps the
The Revival Meeting offers unrivalled access to an extraordinary array of period racing machinery, not least in 2018 Josef Otto Rettenmaier’s 1957 Maserati 250F, seen (below) making its way to the assembly area prior to practice for Sunday’s Richmond & Gordon Trophies race. And, as ever, there were period delights aplenty to be found elsewhere across the infield, including the farmyard scene that greeted visitors to the Drivers’ Club (below left) and, next to the circuit’s main entrance, the wonderful 9017 ‘Earl of Berkeley’ steam locomotive (opposite).
Now in its 12th year, the Freddie March Spirit of Aviation was dedicated, in 2018, to one of the most extensive gatherings of historic RAF aircraft ever assembled, including the 1916 BE2e two-seater biplane (opposite) that flew reconnaissance and bombing missions during the First World War, and one of that conflict’s most famous fighters, the 1917 Sopwith Camel (below right). But best in show was awarded to the Supermarine Spitfire MkIX, MH434, that the great Ray Hanna flew at ‘zero feet’ along the pit straight during the opening of the very first Revival Meeting in 1998, with second place going to the very newly restored Westland Lysander (below), and third to the Bristol Blenheim (last page).
set dressing that had adapted a spartan Goodwood aircraft hangar into this bash’s home for the night. And out on the airfield the everpopular Freddie March Spirit of Aviation concours saw the five judges – including an RAF Air Chief Marshal, an Air Vice-Marshal and an Air Marshal – give the legendary Ray Hanna Supermarine Spitfire MkIX – MH434 – first place, with the 1939 Westland Lysander (fresh out of restoration just five days before) second, and the twinengined Bristol Blenheim third. Meanwhile, the Bonhams Goodwood Revival sale totalled an impressive £14,540,675. The ex-Tom Payne 1964 4.7-litre Shelby Cobra sold for
£1,359,000 – a new European auction record for the marque, while the 1990 Silverstone-winning ex-TWR Martin Brundle/Alain Ferté Jaguar XJR11 fetched £1,191,000 – and the UK road registration ‘RR 1’ broke the auction world record for a number-plate at £460,000. And what of the 20th anniversary Revival cricket match on Thursday? Well, 2012 World Touring Car Champion Rob Huff lofted some of the longest sixes yet seen on Goodwood’s historic cricket pitch, plus numerous tracer-bullet fours. Long-time entrant/ driver David Clark had starred in co-organiser Mark Beattie’s cricketlunch speech – since he tops both the Revival match’s 20-year batting and bowling averages – but he was promptly caught while batting by veteran wicket-keeper Doug Nye, who didn’t even realise, initially, that the ball was lodged in his gloves. As every year, Goodwood Revival 2018 brimmed with such tales of the totally unexpected.
led Franklin by 34 seconds, with Keen a further 10 seconds back, before handing the ‘Breadvan’ to the veteran Pirro after 15 laps. Emanuele rejoined just as Keen boomed past to retake second behind Franklin’s leading Ferrari. In a wild moment at St Mary’s, the DB4GT of Tom Alexander/Adrian Willmott spun, both Rob Huff in the Meins E-type and Simon Hadfield in the Friedrichs Aston going off in avoidance. After 18 laps Franklin handed over to Ludovic Lindsay. Pirro surged past Keen into Madgwick, but when the Italian was blocked by Marc Devis’s Ferrari SWB and the slow Stefano Rosina/Alessio de Angelis Maserati 3500GT at St Mary’s, Keen passed them all on the inside to lead towards Lavant. He hit 140mph down the Straight, but still Pirro recaught him to slice ahead at Madgwick. With 18 minutes to run, Hadfield passed Lindsay and Pirro led Keen by 2.2 seconds, both well clear of Greensall, third. It was almost 7.30pm, and Goodwood was bathed in blood-orange
light. Rob Huff was catching Greensall, while at St Mary’s Bernhard van Oranje in Hugenholtz’s SWB lunged inside Adam Lindemann’s E-type at the second apex, locked a front wheel and rammed the American’s car. With 34 laps run, Keen was within 2 seconds of Pirro, with Huff 4.5 seconds behind Greensall and closing. The Alexander/Willmott Aston spun again at St Mary’s as Huff closed on Greensall, who was baulked by backmarkers at Madgwick. Huff surged inside Greensall’s white Jaguar at St Mary’s and the cars touched, Huff falling back as his front-hinged bonnet sprang open, only to slam shut again. Onto the Lavant Straight, Huff tried to pass again before lunging inside into Woodcote, but too close and again there was contact. An aggrieved Greensall bounced wide and the Huff/ Meins E-type swept past to claim the last podium place, behind winners Halusa/Pirro, with Minshaw/Keen second after a pulsating curtain-raiser to the 20th Goodwood Revival.
The Halusa/Pirro ‘Breadvan’ sweeps into Woodcote behind the Minshaw/ Keen E-type (opposite), the ‘Breadvan’ going on to win ahead of the Jaguar, while the E-type of Chris Milner/Nigel Greensall (below) ran home fourth, with the Wolfgang Friedrichs/Simon Hadfield Aston Martin DB4GT (bottom) sixth.
Troy Corser powers through St Mary’s on the 1929 BMW R57 Kompressor (opposite) on his way to overall victory with co-rider Herbert Schwab, well ahead of the Haydon/Firmin Manx Norton (below) seventh, with Farrall/Williams sixth on their 1933 Rudge TTR (bottom).
The Rutter/Russell Velocette led Schwab, then Ian Bain who had taken over from Hillier, Firmin from Haydon and English from McGuinness. The venerable BMW was touching 125mph on Lavant Straight. Bain took second into Woodcote, English passed Schwab into the chicane and, with 3 minutes to run, Russell led by 8 seconds from English, who passed Bain at Woodcote. But at the chicane on the penultimate lap, Russell’s Velocette MSS slid from under him, tumbling along the track, the Velo’s forks broken. And so English was left to win from Bain, with Schwab third, while the Swallow/Rhodes 1939 Velocette crashed at St Mary’s on that last lap. For the Sunday race, the riders swopped stints – Glen English building an early lead from Schwab, second on the bucking rigid-frame BMW, with Duncan Fitchett on a loaned 1929 BMW replacing Saturday’s stricken Velocette. The Lee Johnston/Reinhard Neumair 1951 Matchless G45 gushed smoke and retired at Madgwick – and
the rider changes began with Seb Peres handing over his ’53 Manx Norton to the great Freddie Spencer. During the stops English’s lead grew to 34 seconds, but Troy Corser was back on the BMW and hurtling round. The English/McGuinness swop saw the TT superstar rejoin while Corser was rodeo-riding at Woodcote, now just 17.5 seconds adrift and closing fast. It was pre-war machine versus post-war, but Troy was faster, and within two laps he was on McGuinness’s tail. Passing the pits Corser was alongside, tapping McGuinness’s backside with his left hand as he ripped past into the lead. And that is how they finished, with Hillier/Bain third overall, then Stuart Tonge/Adam Child, Klaus Ottlinger/ Sebastian Gutsch and Mike Farrall/ Charlie Williams 4-5-6. Troy Corser sailed round the cool-down lap, standing on the aged BMW’s irons, waving and clapping to the hugely appreciative crowd. Barry himself would have been so proud.
A technical infringement cost Andrew Jordan his qualifying time, dropping him from the front row of the grid to the back, so Ashley Sutton’s Lotus-Cortina, Matt Neal’s Studebaker Lark and Rob Huff’s Lotus-Cortina headed the sister Lotus-Cortinas of Andy Priaulx and Emanuele Pirro, with Gordon Shedden’s Mercury Comet, Romain Dumas’ Ford Galaxie and Tom Coronel’s Alfa Romeo 1600 GTA on row three. From flagfall, Huff led Neal and Sutton, with Jordan immediately blazing through into midfield. Neal took the lead on lap two, but Huff fought back, only to be retaken by the Studebaker before Huff led again leaving Woodcote – Sutton and Pirro 3-4. Sutton probed inside Neal at Lavant, but locked up, Pirro snatching third, but Sutton repassed at Madgwick, followed by Priaulx. Neal led, but Huff ran around him at Woodcote. Sutton passed the Studebaker, but was outpowered along the Lavant Straight before repassing at Woodcote, his car’s wagging tail tapping the Lark’s nose.
But Huff had incurred a 10-second penalty for jumping the start, so Sutton really led, though behind Huff on track. As this pair scrapped, Pirro fell away, Sutton eventually sliding past Huff at Madgwick. Huff inched back ahead at Fordwater, but Sutton – on the tight line – led through St Mary’s. Priaulx demoted Neal at Lavant, and Sutton began to draw away, with Jordan now up to fifth. Richard Meaden’s Mini was bundled into the unyielding Lavant Straight bank and Sutton suddenly retired. On the road, Huff led from Priaulx, Neal and Jordan, but behind all three on time. Meanwhile, yellow flags for the wrecked Mini negated Neal’s passing
St Mary’s Trophy A glorious field of 30 1960-66 production saloon cars gathers in the assembly area (opposite) before the start of qualifying, Ashley Sutton going on to take pole in his Ford Lotus-Cortina Mk1. Sutton had to retire during Saturday’s heat, victory going to Andy Priaulx’s sister Lotus-Cortina, seen (below left) chasing Matt Neal in the secondplaced Studebaker Lark Daytona. The V8 power of Mat Jackson’s Plymouth Barracuda (95) and Gordon Shedden’s Mercury Comet Cyclone (69) was no match for the more nimble Lotus-Cortinas, this pair (below) going on to finish fifth and sixth respectively.
Jack Sears Memorial Trophy It was Mk1 Jaguars all the way in the Jack Sears Memorial Trophy, John Young (31) leading the field into Madgwick at the start of the race (opposite), ahead of Justin Law (8) and Grant Williams (12), these three going on to finish the race 1-2-3 in that order. Nick Naismith finished fourth in his Austin A105 Westminster (below right), followed at the back of the field by the actual sister A105 in which ‘Gentleman Jack’ Sears won the inaugural British Saloon Car Championship in 1958 (below).
Commemorating the late, great ‘Gentleman Jack’, this race for Sears-period saloon cars featured huge experience on the all-Jaguar Mk 1 front row, with Justin Law on pole, from John Young and Grant Williams, while row two comprised Neil Brown’s Austin A35 ‘teapot’ and Nick Naismith’s A105. Under cloudy skies, Young nosed ahead from the start but Law held the inside line. Into Madgwick for the first time the two Jaguars kissed, Young running wide with two wheels on the outside verge. Brown’s A35 ran inside the Williams Jaguar, but exiting the corner Williams’s right-front corner nudged Brown’s left-rear, putting both cars onto the outside grass – the A35
bounding along while Williams shot hard-right back onto line, recovering to fourth behind Naismith. Brown had more contact approaching Lavant, with James Wood’s Riley 1.5, Adrian Willmott’s A50 Cambridge and the battered A35 all being squeezed, the front wing of the larger Austin folding against a tyre to trail rubber smoke. Williams was up to third past the pits. After this frenetic opening, Young took the lead from Law on lap two, while Marino Franchitti’s A35 ran off at Woodcote, into the bank, and James Colburn’s sister car retired. Brown, in sixth place, became the leading ‘teapot’. Law retook first place – the leading Jaguars very sideways – while behind them Charlie March’s Jaguar was eighth. Andrew Pritchard spun his VW Beetle at Woodcote. Just 0.7 seconds separated the leading trio, Young using the apex grass at Woodcote while Williams closed, third. The leaders were still running nose to tail when Young squeezed past Law to take the lead on the inside along the
Mike Whitaker qualified his Team Surtees Lola-Chevrolet T70 on pole at 1m 21.715s – an average speed of 104.85mph. Rob Huff was to his left in the Lotus-Oldsmobile 19, from Darren Turner’s Hamill-Chevrolet SR3, while row two comprised Chris Jolly’s Cooper-Chevrolet and Jack Tetley in Roald Goethe’s Lola-Chevrolet T70. Tony Sinclair’s sister T70, James Cottingham’s GT40 and Simon Diffey’s Crosslé-Oldsmobile formed row three. Huff, Whitaker and Turner led into Fordwater, while Katsuaki Kubota’s Lotus-Ford 30 and Sinclair both went grazing. Starting last, Karun Chandhok’s McLaren-Chevrolet M1A was charging. Jolly and Cottingham lay fourth and fifth, and Whitaker passed Huff into Fordwater. Kubota and Michael O’Shea’s Cooper-Maserati retired, and Chandhok stopped briefly. Whitaker led from Huff, with Turner in hot pursuit, while farther back Sinclair was recovering ground, 10th. Cottingham passed Jolly, who fought back entering Madgwick. Contact,
and Jolly ran wide before spinning across to the infield. Joaquín Folch-Rusinol’s Ford GT40 lay sixth behind Tetley. Backmarkers hindered Whitaker at Lavant, then delayed Huff and Turner entering the chicane, and Jolly retired in the pits. Sinclair caught two GT40s, passing Joaquín Folch-Rusinol’s at Madgwick, but Pedro Macedo Silva’s held him off for another lap before the Lola slashed past at Madgwick. Tetley, 16 seconds ahead, was uncatchable. Whitaker led Huff and Sinclair slid wide at Woodcote, the two GT40s repassing. After 13 laps, Whitaker was 6 seconds clear of Huff, while the delayed Chandhok set a blistering fastest lap at 1m 20.238s – 106.78mph. Turner dived inside Huff at Woodcote and held the tight line to the chicane to take second, while Whitaker – who had been trying for three years to win this race – at last claimed the victory. Huff ran home third, with Cottingham, Tetley, Sinclair, Folch-Rusinol and Macedo Silva further back, 4-5-6-7-8.
Whitsun Trophy Mike Whitaker leads out of St Mary’s (opposite) in his Lola T70 Spyder, on his way to victory in the Whitsun Trophy, ahead of Darren Turner second in the Hamill SR3 (below), with Jack Tetley fifth in his T70 Spyder (bottom).
RAC TT Celebration David Hart (1) leads Michael Gans (94) and Martin Stretton (63) out of St Mary’s on the opening lap of the RAC TT (opposite), the sister Cobra of Smith/Bryant (below) close behind and in the mix for much of the race before retiring, while Whitaker/ Jordan ran home third in their TVR Griffith 400 (bottom).
This 45-minute TT, in warm bright sunshine, saw father and son David and Olivier Hart’s Cobra on pole, from the Michael Gans/Gordon Shedden Cobra and Phil Keen/Jon Minshaw’s ‘semi-lightweight’ E-type coupé. The Ollie Bryant/Andrew Smith and Bill Shepherd/Romain Dumas Cobras filled row two, with sister Cobras for Martin Stretton/Karsten Le Blanc and Martin Hunt/Andy Priaulx, plus the Mike Whitaker/Mike Jordan TVR Griffith on row three. The Steve Boultbee Brooks/Martin O’Connell Iso Grifo A3C nonstarted after a qualifying crash, while the Wolfgang Friedrichs/ Simon Hadfield Aston Martin Project 212 had broken its sump – being replaced by Friedrichs’s sister DB4GT. From flagfall Gans led a rampage of Cobras into Madgwick, where Dumas spun violently before rejoining. Hart, Gans and Stretton led into St Mary’s, then Smith and Minshaw who tried to take Smith entering Woodcote on lap two, but slithered wide. At the chicane David Hart “got too greedy”,
clipping the entry wall and earning a five-second penalty. After four laps, Hart led Gans by 0.9 seconds, Stretton just 0.2 seconds behind, then Smith, Minshaw and the Rob Huff/Richard Meins ‘CUT 7’ Jaguar. Hart stretched away, while the Craig Davies/Jason Plato Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray clocked 152mph down the Lavant Straight. Lap six saw the four leading Cobras equally spaced. Stretton took second before Woodcote, with Huff pressing Smith for fourth and displacing him before Woodcote, then immediately squeezing between Gans and the pit wall for third on track, but second on time due to Hart’s penalty. Stretton began pressing Hart, who signalled to his pit that he would stop next lap – the 20-minute mark seeing the driverchange ‘window’ open. Huff caught up with Stretton leaving Lavant, but as Martin braked for Woodcote, Huff’s Jaguar rammed the Cobra’s tail, Huff immediately following Hart into the pits. However, while
took fifth in his BRM P261, and King hit backmarker Eric Staes’s Lotus 18/21 at Woodcote, Staes trying to be helpful, but sidelining the Brabham, its left-front suspension deranged. Middlehurst and Colasacco ran level into the Lavant kink, the Ferrari blasting ahead only to find the line blocked by Paul Woolley’s Scirocco, allowing Middlehurst to regain the lead. Federico Buratti’s Lotus 24 further delayed Colasacco in the chicane, and Dan Collins spun his Lotus 21 at Lavant. Towards the back of the field Malcolm Cook’s Brabham BT10 went grazing, rejoining in a knot of traffic that delayed Middlehurst, allowing Colasacco to catch him – 0.4 seconds the gap. Another wheel-to-wheel duel ensued down the Lavant Straight, but again Middlehurst led through Woodcote. Attwood was third, and Stretton careered off at St Mary’s. Colasacco and Middlehurst were lapping with near identical times, a fraction of a second separating them but, as Attwood fell back, the Ferrari
at last inched alongside Middlehurst sufficiently to slam across the Lotus’s nose and lead at Woodcote. With two laps to run, Milicevic was all over the back of de Silva’s Lotus, while back at Woodcote Middlehurst ran wide, but raced on. And so Colasacco won, to be greeted by his ecstatic American crew and car owner Laurence Auriana. Middlehurst was a magnanimous, outpowered, second, while Milicevic snatched third place from de Silva round the outside at Woodcote, these two followed across the line by Attwood and Mitchell – a fabulous Glover Trophy, and a truly scintillating second Ferrari win at the 20th Anniversary Revival.
Andy Middlehurst leads Joe Colasacco into the chicane during their race-long duel at the head of the field (opposite), with Colasacco heading Middlehurst by just 1.4 seconds at the flag – and the two of them nearly 30 seconds clear of third-placed Jon Milicevic in the LDS-Climax F1 (below), who was caught up in a race-long battle of his own, to finish just 0.2 seconds ahead of Tim de Silva, fourth in his Lotus-BRM 24 (below left).
Sussex Trophy Starting from the pit lane, Phil Keen (33) drove magnificently to catch long-time leader Roger Wills (25) on the penultimate lap (opposite), and then pass him to claim a fabulous victory, with Sam Hancock fourth in the Ferrari Dino 246S (bottom) and Julian Majzub sixth in the Sadler Mk3 (below).
This sports car Revival finale was another spectacular motor race. Phil Keen’s Lister-Jaguar was on pole, but a jammed throttle during the formation lap, meant he had to start from the pit lane. So Sam Hancock in the familiar Ferrari Dino 246S and Roger Wills’ Lotus 15 formed row one, with Martin O’Connell’s Lister-Chevrolet and Ollie Bryant’s Lotus 15 on row two. Wills led Hancock into Madgwick, O’Connell’s Lister-Chevrolet third, with Julian Majzub’s stubby SadlerChevrolet briefly fourth, though quickly displaced by Bryant. O’Connell promptly retired at the end of the first lap, as did Christian Gläsel’s Jaguar D-type and the Lister-Chevrolet of Chris Milner. Meanwhile, Keen was already charging through the field, 11th after only three laps. Bryant was pressing Hancock as Keen took 10th from James Wood’s Lotus 15, then ninth from Jason Minshaw’s Maserati ‘Birdcage’, to chase the Michael Gans and Charlie Martin Lotus 15s. Wills led Hancock by 8
seconds. Bryant displaced Hancock at Woodcote, with Majzub still fourth but being chased by Keen, now fifth. Keen squeezed ahead at St Mary’s and set off after the leading quartet, closing remorselessly as Martin retired. With eight minutes to run, Keen passed Hancock’s Ferrari Dino on the Lavant Straight, and closed on Bryant who was catching Wills. Bryant saw 137.2mph down Lavant Straight, but Keen hit 150.4. He slid wide leaving St Mary’s, but continued to close on Bryant, passing him for second place at Madgwick – Wills just 3 seconds ahead. Keen was hampered at Woodcote by Fred Wakeman’s Cooper-Jaguar, but by the start of the penultimate lap he was on Wills’ tail, and when he ran wide at Lavant, Keen ripped past to claim a remarkable victory. The eversmiling Wills finished second, followed by Bryant, Hancock, Majzub and James Cottingham’s Tojeiro-Jaguar 3-4-5-6 – a truly stupendous finale to a magnificent 21st Revival meeting.
