Goodwood - 6th August 2011

3rd trip of the year to Goodwood was on the 6th of August for the Brighton and Hove motor club's Eagle sprint. As with the previous Goodwood events the course was a single lap of the Goodwood circuit.

The first practice run is 2 laps of the circuit, The first went well giving a time of 95.67 which was around a second faster than I previously managed at Goodwood, however the second lap didn't go quite so well as I ran out of tarmac on the Lavant corner and briefly took to the grass, no damage but didn't help the times or confidence.

On to the timed runs and having run off the circuit in practice and seeing a few drops of rain in the air I went for a slightly less aggressive approach with a time of 96.43 which was still a respectable time.

Second run in the afternoon was a bit better at 95.43s, good enough to take the class win by over 6 seconds and 10th overall very pleased to finish so high up the overall result and always a pleasure to come in front of a Porsche 997 GT3 RS.
