Rich Fowler•26 April, 2024

The Goodwood Members' Meeting is a prestigious annual event held at the Goodwood Motor Circuit in West Sussex, England, and we've grabbed a video of Day Two's highlights to take you inside this exclusive 'Members Only' event.

Imagine a celebration of motorsport history, a time capsule where the past comes alive. Classic cars and motorcycles from different eras fill the paddock: pre-war racers gleaming in the sun, iconic Formula One machines with that unmistakable whine. It's a sensory overload for any petrolhead.

The real magic happens on the track. Forget stuffy museums; these vintage beauties aren't just for show. The Goodwood Members' Meeting features thrilling races with themes around specific eras, like a showdown of pre-war sports cars or a battle between legendary Le Mans prototypes. It's like watching history books come alive in a blur of speed and competition.

But it's not all about competition. There are also special exhibitions with iconic cars or legendary drivers taking the wheel for exciting demonstration runs. It's a chance to witness motorsport royalty in action, pushing the limits of these vintage machines in a controlled environment (hopefully without any bumps!).

The atmosphere at the Goodwood Members' Meeting is unlike any other racing event. It's intimate and relaxed, a gathering of passionate enthusiasts who share a love for all things motorsport. Picture a bunch of car nerds geeking out over these amazing machines, swapping stories, and soaking up the sights and sounds.

If you ever get the chance to be part of the GRRC, the Goodwood Members' Meeting is an experience not to be missed. It's a celebration of the rich history of motorsport, a chance to see these legendary machines in action, and a fantastic day out for any petrolhead.
