THIS is what racing should look like - forget the modern stuff :)

[@stratman9449]

absolutely....

[@Negleygent]

yeah you know...racing with cars

[@Gentleman...Driver]

Modern cars have too much aero. 😞 Back in the day they used every trick as well, but honestly, dirty air is significantly reducing other cars ability to get close to the car in front of them.

A dozen or more different makes and models.

[@povertybay3260]

Recognizable cars from all over completely different engines door to door bumper to bumper doesn't get any better

[@Steu.-rl6ev]

Just 5 minutes of this race are better than a whole formula 1 gp!👍💪

[@TrojanRabbit521]

So glad the British still run these races and allow the public watch these valuable cars run like they are supposed to. In America the rich hoard their cars and most events are private or only rich can afford to attend. The small vs large races are my favorites. Reminds me of my childhood my town ran vintages car races

[@almarn]

Only in GB..it is the paradise if you like racing vintage cars. You need tons of money also. I like Goodwood and I like to see here drivers from Le Mans, ex F1 driver like Jenson Button..it is really a lot of good races not like F1 anymore.

[@tbd-1]

In America you couldn't run a race like this without everything getting smashed up.

[@3ducs]

@@tbd-1 The vintage racing I've see in the US has been very clean, no demolition derbies.

There are historic racing series in America, Goodwood covered the Monterey Car Week races at Laguna/Weather Tech. But to my knowledge, nobody else puts on such a weekend like this packed with crazy car, crazier racing, and awesome vintage atmosphere

[@nickc6882]

Brilliant illustration of the advantages of power vs weight. The Plymouth pulls away on the straight, the mini and the Alfa catch up every where else. Neither is “better” but it leads to amazing racing.

Unbelievably beautiful racers, particularly the Barracuda and Galaxie 500’s. (all of them really)

[@ohar7237]

Heck of a race, I'll say. Awesome to see the match up between cars that are actually *different* compared to these days where that's not easy to find. And while I am a Plymouth boy through and through... they sure enough don't turn all that well compared to some things. 🤣

Mad race, everything had their own speciality, corner, high speed, light weight, dsng, what a race ❤

[@ald1144]

Is there any kind of racing that's more pure FUN to watch than old big and small-bore cars mixing it up? I don't think so. You know every driver was having an absolute blast too.

Watch pre war footage racing here at this channel. Thats awesome older than 110 yr old cars with sometimes over 200 HP aviation engines...no brakes thin tires...

Felt very privileged to have this as my first ever race to see live at Goodwood!

[@peterlorimer4865]

Outstanding St Mary's Trophy. Remember, Alfa 1.6 GTs had dual circuit, twin servo, four wheel disc brakes. Helped a lot, despite 1/3 of the power of the V8s. Max speed of a standard road car was only about 125 at 6,700rpm in 5th.

Awesome racing as always with Historics and Classics unlike the modern rubbish. The practice I watched yesterday with the Healy 3000 under full control even at 45 degrees was superb.

[@NBC_NCO]

These drivers are really having to work the steering and the 3 pedals with no driver aids. I'm glad people have preserved these cars for us to enjoy today.

Amazing racing. I'm always pleasantly surprised how beautifully prepared and perfect the race cars look at the start. Equally surprised that drivers get so close and don't worry about a few scratches.

[@zevilaga]

What a crazy race, interesting from start to finish. I don't understand how can the huge monster cars be competing against the Minis. Fun to watch.

Beautiful cars😊 Alfa GTA is awesome

[@texleeger8973]

I rode in a friend's brand-new Sprint GT when I was in high school. He drove it as if it was live at Goodwood. Exhilarating. Exciting. Unforgetable. A near-death experience.

[@fankullah]

The GTA is, indeed, awesome. But that is a Giulia GT Sprint, which is not as fast as the GTA

[@howardhughes7596]

My old buddy sold his a few years ago. Sad as it was a beautiful car and scared the crap out of me the one time I rode with him, but age put the frame into bad shape and it was retired. New crappy Alfa bought. Instant mistake.

[@DontCryAboutIt]

All it takes is a longer straightaway

[@jncg2311]

@@DontCryAboutIt Nothing gets away from the mass difference though and circuit racing in the UK generally doesn't have long straights. Unlike NASCAR, British saloon car racing was almost exclusively on courses like Goodwood that started as the perimeter roads on airfields with chicanes and infield sections included to vary the track layout. Much of the European racing was on road courses that took in twisty sections so mass and handling were important for all classes. That the big cars, particularly so the Galaxie does so well at Goodwood is testament to the work done on a very few specifically for British saloon car racing by Holmann and Moody.

[@chrisbutenko8974]

@@1240enzo l agree. I think the Alfa's a better car for this course. Really impressive. It almost looked effortless. On the other hand, the Cuda driver was really driving hard, slipping sideways around every corner; pushing it to the edge. Very impressive driving, l thought. But Roman in the Galaxy probably had the fastest run. Starting behind and finishing up with a bumper length off 2nd place. The power of the Ford on the straight was amazing. A great race in so many ways.

[@chrisbutenko8974]

​@@DontCryAboutIt Yes, it isn't about which type of car is better. It depends on the course. It's great fun to watch the big American cars compete against the Europeans. To see the V8s rocket up the straight and the smaller cars zip through the twists.

[@michaelredd4881]

Bought one of those Alphas new in '68. 1775cc (actually about 1950cc) engine was all aluminum, double overhead cam, fuel injected. It took 8 quarts of oil. The 5 speed tranny and rear gear box were aluminum. 4 wheel disc brakes. Solid as as a rock. Very quick, agile and fast. It wanted to cruise at 110 mph. 😂

[@3ducs]

Love to see the Alfa victory! I'm negotiating on a 1971 GTV 1750, complete and straight but very rusty. Beautiful cars.

[@tobyholt4682]

@@3ducs I think you’d be better off negotiating on one with no rust (almost an impossibility with those) and a bit bent! 😀

[@3ducs]

@@tobyholt4682 Possibly, but the car is complete, I have worked with very rusty cars before, did rotisserie body restorations of three XK-Es, a couple of 750 series Alfas, and an Austin Healey 100M. I'm in New England, finding no rust cars of any stripe just isn't in the cards. The car I'm trying to buy is half an hour away but the owner is a hoarder who has 100 cars rusting away and sinking into the ground. Lots of 2002s, two 912s, it's a real shame seeing them that way.

[@CoreyGolphenee]

Alfa GTA Junior alloys, Mini Cooper works cars that are built to the hilt, the Galaxie 500 lightweight cars, the aluminum Plymouth barracuda, there’s a BMW 2002 in there that’s probably a race spec chassis of some sort, mark 1 ford lotus cortinas, which usually win the race. That’s usually the field for this class, maybe a Camaro, mark 2 jag as well.
