Goodwood Vee-Power Sunday Breakfast Club 6th November 2022
 

I intend to be there (weather and family commitments allowing) as my S8 has been selected for display, along of course with a lot of other V8s (and other V's) of various vintages.
It's been on display there before (back in 2015), but not in such "fine fettle" as now. :ROFL:

If you intend to go you have to register (individually) to gain entry: https://www.goodwood.com/motorsport/breakfast-club/

I love a good Breakfast Club meet :D Have had mine on the pit straight at Goodwood for a previous V power session.

Note to those who aren't familiar with the format - it's an early start and pretty much all done by lunchtime. The breakfasts are really good (albeit not cheap, not surprisingly, given the venue) and there's always an eclectic selection of vehicles on display

Definitely all done by about midday, many exhibitors start leaving before 11am, especially if they got there for 6:30 opening! Sunrise is about 7am that day.
The pit straight used to be pre-selected, and I think still is to some extent, but also the marshals will direct anything they like the look of onto the central "prestige" section.
The last one I went to (earlier this year, not exhibiting) I arrived about 8am and the car parks were already busy.
Breakfast in the Jackie Stewart Pavilion is the priciest option, but still a good meal! Though the other cafes are good too.

Is it still than shiny?

When I clean it, yes. +++
It sits outside, not garaged, so on the night of 5th it's bound to collect a lot of bonfire/firework dust. :-(

I have visitor tickets so will look out for you+++

Did you make it Andrew?

I had a ticket, but the weather put me off in the end (plus the Veteran Car Run literally goes past the end of our road so went and got wet watching 120 year old cars being driven by nutters instead!)

Sadly not. :-(
Firstly the weather prevented me even cleaning the car, then it just looked awful on the forecast for the day. And it certainly was here, all morning.
And the Hackney outpost of my family (with grandson #1) decided to visit on Saturday for our village fireworks and stay the night with more of them (including grandson #2) joining us on Sunday morning so I had even more reasons to stay at home. :cool:
And when I looked at it in daylight on Sunday it was covered in muddy crud from the nearby bonfire/fireworks/rain combo. :tuttut:

I know it's 18 months later, but I was there today, with my S8 on show on the circuit! +++
(Sorry no pictures, but you know what it looks like after a good clean :ROFL: )
It was the 100th Breakfast Club and being a Bank Holiday it was totally rammed. Cars parked further round the circuit than I've ever seen before and much bigger crowds.

I was supposed to be parked on the section between Woodcote and the Chicane but was a bit late so ended up on the Lavant straight! It was also still on its winter wheels which aren't the best, but at least they are what it left the factory on. :cool: Only 4C when I left home this morning.

Anyway, a few newer fast Audis, couple of RS2s that I think I've seen before but not a single A8 or S8 apart from mine! :tuttut:

This rather splendid Ghost followed me in, note the double-red RR logo!
