On Saturday the 18th of Augustus 2018 the Vintage and Sports-Car Club (VSCC) organizes a Summer Sprint at Goodwood Motor Circuit. The Summer Sprint will form part of the Speed Championships. The races at the Sussex venue will already be round 6 in the competition.
If you would have liked to participle yourself, we regret to inform you that this is not possible anymore. But this is definitely a real opportunity for you to come, watch and enjy all aspects of pre-war car motoring and motorsport. Both in a competitive and in a more relaxed sociable environment.
The grounds are open to the public and all facilities are available. Also for people who are disabled, this can definitely be a wonderful day out.
As the spaces for this fantastic event were limited to 95 we are very curious to see who will appear at the start and in which car. And of course who will win the races!
Below an overview of the results of the VSCC races which were held on the 22nd of July 2018 at Cadwell Park. You can find the results of the other VSCC races here.
Hopefully, this gives you an idea what you can expect on the 18th at Goodwood. Hope to see you all there!
