I will vote for Goodwood.
First, its not on my doorstep, and I love to visit UK. Second, its only once a year, and you can go to Spa several times each year, if you want it. And last, I think Goodwood is such a treat, what I´ll be stupid to miss it.

Very confuse with your last post Simon . Never been invited to ex girlfreinds wedding. Will have another beer i am sure it will become very clear soon. There is no doubt for me as i only get to go to Goodwood as a mechanic and have to put up with yesterdays heroes moaning about the cars, i get to drive a couple of cars at Spa so Belgium here we come. Unless we get an entry for the Lotus 22. I might have to eat humble pie. Will keep you posted.

Just want to say that to all those of you who voted 'Spa', I look forward to taking your place at Goodwood (probably the only way I'd get to race there), as you return/reject your invitation to race there.

Cynical, moi?

The Belgian GP has changed position with Italian GP so Sept Date available for Spa.
Earlier the better.
Why Goodwood has moved from start of month baffles me,it will be something to do with F1,WRC or Caravan Club.Bottom of list will be any clash with other major Historic Meetings.This was the reasoning for the Festival clashing with LMC that despite a lot of soul searching by Goodwood they had no alternative but to accept the clash,I believe them.yer
Its a pity See Red gets swamped by this and presumably the Mallory Tin Top job

I may have taken your quote waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay out of context but. I'm already looking forward to Spa 2008.

I thought it was more of a Teepee, and I'm sure they'll do a lentil fondue with a veggie curry once they've got a few squatters in

I think Goodwood have already done the British Raj at the ball

So,rather unsurprisingly,do we pronounce Spa as they favorite?
