UK 2026 – Day 4 (Goodwood Members Meeting)

After breakfast we drove to Goodwood via a nearby jet wash. Our car was in a desperate need of getting cleaned. The track is just 20 minutes drive from Arundel.

This was the eighth time we visited the Goodwood Road and Racing Club’s Members Meeting. It’s a smaller version of Goodwood Revival. But still gives you two days of historic racing with cars and motorcycles. Even the parking area is worth spending some time exploring.

This year the weather was great with some 14 degrees and partly cloudy. After watching some qualifying we walked to the pit to watch the cars up close.

Every year there are several car manufacturers present as well who show of their cars. Alpine was back this year again.

There were also some more exotic cars, Dalara and Lanzante. The later was also driven on the track by Kenny Bräck.

The main theme for this year was 1990’s Touring Cars. So they had gathered a selection of cars from that era.

But of course the focus is on older cars. Ranging from the early 1900 up until late 1980.

There was a demonstration of F1 cars from the mid-70’s. Unfortunately I didn’t manage to get at photos of them driving.

Apart from the action on track, there is more to look at. Bonhams have an auction during the weekend. There are also several companies selling classic cars, automobilia and clothing.

In the evening we walked into the village of Arundel to have dinner. The walk from our hotel went over some fields and through a forest. It was very dark on the way back.
