On the subject of 'optional dress code', the French authorities came over to Goodwood the year before the first Le Mans Classic event and went home somewhat starry-eyed at what they saw could be acheived with enough attention detail.
Their attempt to enforce a similar 'period' dress code collapsed through firstly a lack of enforcement and secondly the fact that such a dress code looks rather silly in the context of a modern concrete paddock. What works at Goodwood will not automatically work elsewhere. |

Duncan,
Allow me to be the first to welcome you to the board. You make a good point which crosses over with my thoughts that Goodwood is Goodwood and other events should avoid trying to aspire to what it is. Spa doesn't and a properly organised festival at any other UK circuit shouldn't cow tow to its mores either. |
