I'm aiming to go in my Mini (nothing too unusual I guess).

A question I do have though for those in the know. I registered for this event a few months back but have had no response from Goodwood as yet. Anyone know how it works, when should I expect to hear anything about being able to get into the circuit with a theme car? confused

Which 'Beast' is that Jon? Isn't this the pre-66 meeting?

'It's Pre-1966 vehicles, celebrating the golden era of Goodwood Motor Circuit, with a nod to 100 years of Aston Martin'.

I guess the nod to 100 years of Aston Martin means that Aston's right upto present day are included in Sunday's Breakfast Club.

I'll be attending in a V12 Vantage.

Those of you going from London/Surrey, be aware (and a bit afraid)

Big cycling race clogging up the roads.

Over on fortyonesix people are reporting that they have received emailed passes. Like you, I haven't received anything. I'll be going anyway.

Nothing yet Ian, I'll go anyway, apparently there is an Aston theme and as I've got a 1958 Aston I shouldn't have too much trouble getting in. Should I?

Nothing about it being pre-'66 on the GWBC page: http://www.goodwood.co.uk/breakfast-club/breakfast...

Although I wonder if it was billed as pre-'66 earlier on in the year as I have a vague recollection of that being the case for this Sunday's meet.

Anyways, I am most certainly very post-'66 and I am in, have had the email confirmation and circuit access pass.

It does say pre 66 on this page though - http://www.goodwood.co.uk/breakfast-club/2013-them...

Also their twitter feed stated recently "celebrating everything Pre 66 also 100yrs of @astonmartin".


Been going to Goodwwod BC's pretty much since they started and it was such an easy format. Now they introduce this ticket type system (which I can understand why) and it falls down at the first hurdle (perhaps I registered too early back in May!).

Oh well, going anyway and we'll see what happens at 8am Sunday morning rolleyes

As per usual it'll be up to how the blokes on the gate feel at the exact moment you arrive (at the gate). Let's hope they are dry, happy bunnies (i.e.: got a good night's sleep and aren't too hungover!) biggrin

Hello, I joined a run from Guildford Cathedral when I did a breakfast run a year ago but have found nothing this year.
Is there one? I know about the cycling and wondered if people have been put off?

Cheers
