Goodwood Festival of Speed 2008 (240 photos!)

[5H4K]

Another year, another huge display of just about every type of motor vehicle you can think of!

I went on the Sunday for the 11th year running. The weather was brilliant and it stayed dry and warm pretty much all day. It cooled down around 4pm but nothing to worry about.

I also managed to get the autographs of Williams test driver Christian Klien and Red Bull test driver, Sébastien Buemi. I know, not exactly glamourous but it's something lol!

Anyway, photos time! There's 240 in the full gallery, including the ones I've posted here.

FULL GALLERY.

Loving DSC_1407, what would it take to get a wallpaper sized version ?

Thanks

Excellent pictures, especially like the ones with cars on the hill, I seldom capture a moving car well myself

I have a Nikon D300. Lenses used were Sigma 18-50 f2.8 and Nikkor 70-200 f2.8 AF-S VR for motion shots.

Great photos! (Not looked at the gallery yet!)

But Chris Evans? Why?

Great photos!

Just out of interest, which supercar run was the photo of the M3 from? If it was the early afternoon one at about 2:30, that was me in the passenger seat next to James Pickford! Top bloke and really rather handy behind the wheel!

There was only one supercar run, I think.

Time stamp of the photo is 14:40 so it's you!

Brilliant, I'm famous! Sort of...

Is there any chance of getting hold of a copy of the original photo and also DSC_1459 (also me!)? My old man's camera battery ran out before the supercar run started and I have no photographic evidence of a rather special day.

Many thanks,
Nik
