Goodwood Festival Of Speed 2011

Awesome as ever. Hard to describe what a 'proper' even this is with something for any car nut. All major manufacturers are there with big stands (not that interesting, although the Alfa stand was crammed full of very good looking women, and the Morgan stand was cool). Rally stage, race car paddocks, tanks etc. Excellent.
