Goodwood FoS 2008
Well, if there is another thread on this, I haven't found it! so...err... here it is!
Who's going then? I've got my passes and tickets today and it appears I'm on Finish 2 (alhtough how this differs from Finish 1 is beyond me). I recognise a lot of names from the allocation sheet already. Secondly, as this is my first visit please forgive my noobiness but what's the camping like, and how far is it from the camping to the main event area (for the benefit of my parents who are coming with me). Cheers. |

They should be in your letter somewhere and you exchange them for your lunch bag at sign on every morning... If you have not been given any then speak to Dale at sign on and he will help you out... |

The campsite is at the top of the hill, next to the racecourse (horses), can get a bit windy.
Stig, unfortunately sign on is at the bottom, so get the mini-bus there and back to your post. You'll be lucky at the end of each day, as you'll be able to walk to the campsite, without having to highjack one of the minibuses! As for your parents, the rally stages are also at the top of the hill, and there's lots to see on the way down to the paddock, at the bottom. Hope the weather is better this year, it couldn't get much worse that last year. You should be alright as I won't be going, it's just not my cup of tea.

Stig: Finish #2 is stuck in a foresty bit with no cover other than overhanging trees. This means it never drizzles, you just get big gobs of water dropping on you all day. Strongly suggest you take some kind of cover to stand under or put your kit under. I took a big free-standing golf umbrella that sticks in the ground. I'm glad I did.

I thought the marshals camping was on the move again and would be somewhere different.
Just checked and i think it is not in exactly the same place as last year, can anyone confirm this? I shall be there handing out the marshals radios once again. Feel free to come along to the car and say hi. Last edited by rescue dude; 23 Jun 2008 at 00:35. |

He also told me that the Marshals camp site is just that, NO interlopers!! The camp site IS in a different place lower down and more sheltered, so can only be better. |
