Supercar Sunday pre registration
Discussion
I was at Goodwood this morning for a track day and in the club house a notice has been posted about revised traffic management for Supercar Sunday. Amongst other things it says:
I can't see any mention of this on the website though.

- Only cars that have pre-registered and have a printed pass will be allowed into the circuit.
- Themed cars must arrive before 8.00am.
I can't see any mention of this on the website though.

Hi, I'd kind of hoped that the Noble would make the grade, it did a few years back and have great photo of it on the grid. Maybe it doesn't cut the mustard these days (despite still being able to show some of the more modern exotica a clean pair of heels!)
No hum.

I think the Noble would be borderline now.. Bearing in mind how many cars now attend. It would be a shame to miss it just because you couldn't get your car into a particular spot though??No hum.

Update: You have to poke around a bit to find it but a cut-down version of the notice I mentioned above has now been posted on the Goodwood Website under Latest News
Now enjoying its eighth season, the pioneering Goodwood Breakfast Club has gone from strength-to-strength in both its reputation and attendance over the years.
To help assist the smooth vehicle transit into the event, as well as to efficiently park-up the right theme-relevant cars and motorcycles, and provide a more accurate volume of catering to meet demand, Goodwood is now firming-up on the mandatory need to pre-register your vehicle before all future Breakfast Club events.
The next scheduled Breakfast Club meeting is Supercar Sunday on 2nd June. This is traditionally the most popular Breakfast Club meeting of the season, with the roads and car parks around Goodwood filling-up fast. Therefore, for this event, all supercar drivers and superbike riders aiming to enter the Goodwood site and potentially have their car or bike parked on the main grid must pre-register online at www.goodwood.com/breakfastclub to help ensure a smooth flow. A vehicle pass (relevant to the themed vehicle only) can then be downloaded and printed off for display in the vehicle windscreen when approaching Goodwood.
None-pass holders, and all other none-theme relevant vehicles, will be directed by sign posts and marshalls into car parks directly opposite the Goodwood Moor Circuit for a very short walk into the event itself.

Hi Dave too

Hi Shelly and Jamie. Hopefully see you on Sunday...
I think it's a case of "damned if you do, damned if you don't."
Without pre-registration, there is no way that marshalls can ensure that all themed vehicles make it into the circuit but with it, I suspect it almost guarantees even longer queues on every approach to the circuit.
I haven't been to one of these for over a year now - too much queuing unless a silly o'clock start and over-priced breakfasts. Pre-registration will not make much difference I fear. It's a shame as it was and is a good idea but the circuit approaches cannot really cope with the numbers that attend a free event.
