Today I went to my first event of 2008!!! Wooo! The South Downs Stages Rally held at Goodwood Circuit. After a few months off I was a little bit rusty and the chilly weather didn't help much, but still it was good to get back out there! Saw a few u guys, said hello. Also saw a few of you but not to talk to, no doubt see you at some point this year!
I'm expecting quite a few threads from this event, seems even more people are walking around with big ol' cameras and lenses :lol:
Looking forward to the new season, it's officially kicked off in my books now! I wonder if Brands or Thruxton has sprouted any new fencing during the off-season, wouldn't be suprised! One thing I really like about Goodwood is the open'ness and unobstructed view everywhere!
Anyway enough talk here's a few compressed "forum friendly sized" photos...

Like last year the viewing was excellent but overall a little limiting, still some good spots! The chicanes aren't exactly "photogenic" (dodgy wooden pallets) but they provided the drivers with a challenge nonetheless.
