Goodwood Festival of Speed

Here are a few pictures from the Goodwood Festival of Speed 2016.  My son took me as a present for my 60th birthday.  Great time. I could have had two days there.  The highlight for me was seeing Alex Zanardi in the BMW Z4 and John Surtees. Both are real inspirations considering all they have been through.  Indy Car Champion, an Olympic gold medal holder, and John Surtees is the only man to win World Championships on 2 and 4 wheels.  His Honda F1 car from 1967 shown in the gallery

I Will never forget Alex’s overtake of Bryan Herta at Laguna Seca on the CorkScrew.

  • Alex Zanardi BMW Z3 GT4
  • Mercedes AMG GTR
  • Ford GT40
  • Nascar Chevrolet Camero SS
  • John McGuiness Mugen Shinden
