It is a fantastic show, dont get me wrong, but as far as racing goes, which is after all what 90% of those cars where built specifically to do, you could attend a decent club meet, Top Hat for example, get in, drink champagne and eat strawberries all day long for the same price. and actually see some real competitive racing, meet and talk to competitors at will, plus the club events would benefit no end from the increased interest and revenue, Goodwood (revival) has already alienated genuine club historic racers regardless of competitiveness, its all about names and money, and a lot of owners dont drive their cars either
