Apart from the fact that Goodwood and Masters are both commercial operations looking to make a profit, in my opinion that’s where the similarity ends. My understanding is that Goodwood make most of their money from spectators and corporate hosptality, Masters make theirs from race entrants (customers) only. (May be a bit simplistic.... )
The Goodwood Members Meeting is literally unique, and offers those racing and spectating appropriately unique entertainment and hospitality to go with it. Masters have a set business model for their meetings around Europe, so you get basically the same for your money wherever.
Again IMO, you can’t compare apples and pears......
