Me too!.. Mr Millen was a rotary god.

Spoked to someone inside that hopefully it will have some real hillclimb boys come in next year.. I canna wait to see it happen cos those boys are real hardcore racers.. it may upset few people and racing companys. :lol:

I haven't sorted our pics and vids out yet, but I'll post them up soon.

Did anyone spot us on the big screens on Friday...when they were interviewing and showing the 767/787/792 in front of the sculpture? We were allowed in with the cars as they roped everyone else off, so I recorded the noise right at the exhaust end - so close in fact, the heat of it burned the hairs off my legs :shock:

Shame the 767 took a trip into the hay bales, such a lot of damage from what looked like a relatively gentle off :(

I guess we're all entitled to our opinion...personally I think you're either blind, have been smoking crack, or just simply forgot where you're posting :lol:

LoL.. my opinion and very true.
was there for two days, very glad to see racing mazdas . The highlight was met mad mike, forever talked rotaries and shake hands. Respected that man.
Felt that mazda uk should bring in Jim Downing's IMSA race cars,Allan Moffat's 43 and Kathy Rude as guest driver.
Anyway, Glad to heard that Rossi had a go on 787B cos both of a legends.

I took a bunch of pictures and videos on my phone. They like to rotate themselves when I put them on the PC though. Then Photobucket completely messes them up! :evil: I'll try get them sorted.

What an awesome day though! I went down on Friday with GT_James. First time at a Goodwood even and I don't think it could of been better. Had a good 30-45 min chat with the TWR RX-7 guys as I'm sure most guys here probably did. They even let myself and GT_James have a sit inside :D I kept an eye out for any of you guys nearby but there were quite a lot of people about :lol:
