Yep. Can’t say I’ve seen much about what’s going on this year.

Speaking to the Goodwood team last week I fully expect to start seeing things about MM from next week - This week was going to be recovering from Revival!

Haven't been in 3 years, and can't wait to be honest. First time taking my other half, hoping it helps in her understanding of why I like this hobby

It’s a bit like the revival without the huge crowds.
I absolutely love it- be interesting to have it in October instead of it’s usual March/ April slot. I’m assuming it will revert next year (subject to you know what!)?

I shall be there both days and I must admit, whilst there’s normally a tinge of sadness on the Sunday drive home after the Revival it was great this year to say to friends ‘see you in four weeks’!

I hope it’s back to it’s normal date so we can say see you in 5-6 months. Instead of the long wait til FOS.

Everyone possible will be going to the MM.
I presume the Gerry will be Swiftys last race, unless he really did mean that he was retired after the Revival.

It will no doubt be epic anyway, as always!

I assume it’s the event planned for March 2020 just 18 months later, same races and demos?

I’m thinking so but when trying to look at any event info it just throws a coming soon page.

The country really is in a mess if the Gerry Marshall trophy race doesn't entertain , hopefully Pirro will be there in another Alfa like last week ,
or that stripey old 5 series .

The original (swing badge) tickets are still valid so you should have received them at least 18 months ago. I imagine quite a few people will have trouble locating them.

Some details of the original line-up can still be seen here: : www.goodwood.com/grr/event-coverage/members-meeting/2020

"...a packed schedule of 14 incredible races, including a new format for the iconic Gerry Marshall Trophy and the two-part S.F. Edge Trophy, plus three amazing demonstrations — celebrating the historic TWR Jaguar XJRs, the Lotus 72 and its contemporaries, and Goodwood's first ever night-time rally sprint.

How much of that will be in the rescheduled event remains to be seen. Some of it, of course, featured in last October's Speedweek.

I’ve never been to goodwood, but I’m quite interested in going, how is the members meeting different to the festival of speed etc? I’m hoping I’ll get to see some gt40s driving around?

You’ll need to be a member or a fellow to get tickets although I imagine some reselling will occur.

Members meeting is on a circuit and involves racing. No timetable of races has been published.

The difference between the Members' Meeting and the Revival is that the Members' Meeting allows cars from the post 1966 period to race.

The events held at Goodwood are -

Festival of Speed - hillclimb in grounds of Goodwood House

Revival - historic race meeting held on the Goodwood Circuit for cars that raced their in the original period the circuit was used i.e. 1948 to 1966

Members' Meeting - historic race meeting for cars up to around 1980.
