Default Goodwood FOS Performance Car parking

I was just buying my tickets for this years Festival of Speed and i’d thought i’d see what perks made up the various packages.

Separate parking for performance cars is available.

https://ticketing.goodwood.com/Asset...-List-2018.pdf

I note Audi S cars are not on the list, I had always thought of them as a performance car, also it’s a shame for us S8 owners as Audi don’t make a RS8!

Not sure I see the need for £65 parking though for my old girl!

Some odd cars on the list.......

So you can't park a Roller there unless it's the Wraith?!

Bugger because I own EVERY single Rolls Royce model except the Wraith!

You'll just have to pick one of the others and slum it with the rest of the mortals.

What a great idea! I'd have forked out the extra, assuming the parking bays were bigger.

It's weird that they have 'any M model' of BMW available as well as any Nissan GTR, which threw out my theory of them trying to limit numbers.

It's a shame there was no love for the Volvo T-5Rs (not that I have one, but they deserve some respect, especially considering it's their engine in the Ford RS models that are on the list).

I wonder if I'd get away with adding a temporary 'R' badge before the 'S'?!

But any model of Bentley is ok.....? It is an odd list isn’t it! That’s the trouble with lists, as soon as you make one, something will be wrong.
