Another amazing Festival Of Speed day with the boys. For me the best car of the show was the Singer Porsche DLS, one word AWESOME. I went online and found out that they will make 75 units with an asking price of around $1.8m… ouch. We can but dream.

First of the year and weather looks good! Theme is old cronkers or something.

The usual early start, meeting at the Broken Spur at 7.45 I think! Convoy down to Goodwood and bacon and coffee afterwards at the Kennels.

She may not have been the quickest car there but PC and Brian set the 11th and 12th fastest start times measured over 0-64ft, its just a shame the other 2.4 miles were not quite as quick.

Steve McQueen’s quote from Le Mans summed up the day: ‘Racing is life, everything else, before and after, is just waiting around ‘ – brilliant!

A mixed day of fortunes for Marcus and his amazingly quick new toy. Straight out the box in practice he set a flying lap of 93 secs, seriously fast. Sadly on his first timed run the drive chain snapped to end his day in disappointment sitting on the start/finish line. We all felt for him. The good news is we know when he returns next year he will be on for a top ten finish, if not top five, IF he has the ‘balls’ to leave everything on the track.

The boys managed to get their cars into the supercar car park, though as you can see they were properly trumped by an Enzo (a hyper car)! Even Stuart got his spanking brand new BMW 135i Coupe in after asking the marshall nicely and pointing out he was a first timer.

Brian said today; ‘This is me having my mid-life crises, and you know what its bloody marvelous!’

Here are a couple of pictures of our first trackday with SPR at the historic Goodwood Race Circuit. You can see more pictures under the ‘SPR 2010 Race Diary’ page.
