Goodwood breakfast club

All the themes for the breakfast meets have been announced Vee-Power Sunday for us. I will be attending them all if anyone fancies meeting for the drive over. I have registered my car for the Veepower one too.

Sushi Sunday was my favourite a few years back. But I'm a massive Jap fan

:tsk:

I've applied for Soft top and Vee power but I'll try to get to more.

I usually attend the Supercar one and maybe vee-power; I won't register if there are plenty of others going. I usually ride my bike over for Supercar to avoid traffic and wander around swooning. Be good to meet up though; we'll have to exchange numbers.

Bump as a reminder that Supercar Sunday is a week on Sunday (7th May)

Not sure if you all got the email today, but you now have to register if you want to attend as a visitor. That's also including this Sunday's meet. They have capped the numbers to 15000 people now.

Not had anything yet. I registered for this Sunday but apart from the original acknowledgement I've heard nothing.

https://www.goodwood.com/sports/motorsport/breakfast-club/ - yep, now a ticketed event. Whilst the idea of the thing goes against that, the last one was so busy I gave up trying to see anything of interest after an hour and went home. It was heaving.

Just trying registering my car on the Goodwood website and it can't find my registration number so might need to wait a few days and try again, was looking at the V power event, it's a long way to go for anything else.

Had this......... No mention of registering as a visitor :shrug:

Thank you for applying to display your vehicle at Soft Top Sunday - 04/06/2017.
There has been a great deal of interest in this Breakfast Club and we have been inundated with so many great examples of the cars and bikes that fit our theme.
Unfortunately your vehicle hasn’t been selected for display within the Goodwood Motor Circuit this time around, but we’d still love to see you and your family/friends at the event.
There is no charge for our visitor parking where you will be directed by Marshals, or to access the Circuit for the event itself – the only thing you pay for at Breakfast Club is the optional breakfast from our on-site vendors!
Breakfast Club is such a social event, so make sure you share your photos using #BreakfastClub and to check out our social media page https://www.goodwood.com/grrc/event-coverage/breakfast-club/.
Meanwhile, please visit www.goodwood.com to learn about our other Motorsport events and experiences.
On behalf of all here at Goodwood we look forward to seeing you and hope you have a wonderful day at Soft Top Sunday - 04/06/2017.

Got my acceptance for STS last week, but also received the following via email yesterday:

Sounds like a recipe for disaster. How many of the thousands attending regularly will check the website to find this out when the website only changed today. They will turn up without tickets. Also, I applied three months ago and to be told yesterday that I'm not in is pretty poor. It's a shame the Members meet is superbly organised but the breakfast club seems a bit of a shambles.

Sounds like BC has become a victim of its own success and Goodwood have been required to mitigate the impact on their neighbourhood. To quote a Supercar Sunday attendee pal:

"What they mean by a successful Supercar Sunday is traffic chaos. The tailback was at least four miles back down the Chichester by-pass (5 or 6 miles total). No problem for those exhibiting as we are in place well before the public start to arrive but a nightmare for the public and locals."
