9 incredible pre-war cars thrown up the Goodwood hill | Festival of Speed

Motorsport didn't begin with Formula 1, basically as soon as a car had been built, someone was building a second to race it. Pre-war the racing scene was as, if not more, eclectic and exciting as it became afterwards. With everything from Grand Prix cars, to sportscars to 'specials' built for racing from Brooklands to Shelsley Walsh.
Every year these cars, little and large, from the pioneering era of pre-war motorsport come back to the Goodwood Festival of Speed presented by Mastercard to show the youngsters exactly how it should be done!

I like the coordination talk that i don't think was supposed to be recorded in the beginning 😁

[@GoodwoodRR]

We wonder if anyone ever told David whether he was throwing to himself... 🤔

I love this. Cars that are mind-blowingly valuable and the drivers are absolutely giving them a good thrashing. No concept of trailer queens here lol

Julian Mazjub. Keep shining you Crazy Diamond.

[@itsalexplayz2782]

It’s absolutely amazing to see old cars like these being caned! Most of these cars are stashed away in garages. That’s why Goodwood is my favourite place to be. :)

[@chanmanthegreat1429]

That Alfa Romeo 308C is gorgeous!!

[@X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X]

Having read up on Grand Prix history before the introduction of the F1 World Championship last week, this is just the video I like to see. The run in the Alfa Romeo 308C (starting at 5:03) is mindblowing!

[@arthur9924]

Mazjub is a fantastic driver of these cars. Really doing it justice! The sound is sublime too!!

[@X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X]

@@arthur9924 He truly is. My hat's off to this man, these cars are still very much not safe.

[@jcgabriel1569]

What's fantastic about the Alfa Romeo P3 is, apart from the launch, it only uses second and third (top gear) throughout the course!

[@crackedcookies]

It's worth going to FOS every year just to watch the crazy Iranian in the Type 35

[@hudsonkiyonaga]

The man does exactly what the soul of that car was made to do.

[@asd36f]

The Type 35's starting handle swinging in the breeze 🙂

[@trespire]

The Alfa Romeo's sound amazing. Twitchy handling though !

[@Dfanch]

That s76 is absolutely perfect! Back when the best way to go faster was just have more displacement. Wouldn't mind if someone gifted it to me!

[@mortensen1961]

And to think, the owner of that monster actually drives that in British traffic. . .

[@davidmccann9811]

Watching these old cars racing around those dusty tracks in the 20s and 30s must have been an incredible sight and sound.

[@MemesAndVehiclesYT]

5:17 simply gorgeous looks and amazing sound ❤

The rasp of the Riley is remarkable

[@mcpheonixx]

It always surprises me how quick those cars are, especially coming into Flint wall. Simply amazing!

[@MyGoToUserName]

The four people at the starting grid seeing the cars off definitely have the best jobs there outside of the drivers 😁

[@MB2340]

What for cars, what a sound, what for drivers. Absolutely beautiful.

The title is Bang on. These are Incredible cars with incredible drivers. I always love Duncan's crazy cars.

[@reheller]

The Beast! The Beast! ❤️

[@shoominati23]

As amazing as some of these cars are, it's also amazing how some of the more common vehicles get noticed too. People will drop everything and watch as a rare car like the Alfa 308 gets started up in the pits. but always without FAIL, no matter who is driving - if a Mini Cooper drives by people NEVER fail to stop and stare at it .. just one of those wierd parallels that you make note of..

[@N-Scale]

They are all simply beautiful and the sound of the Mercedes and Alfa's is amazing

[@michaelmontgomery6388]

[@combativeThinker]

The Mercedes-Benz W125 sounds incredible.

[@steveamrein194]

That was the best sounding car ever including modern V8's

[@pbjracing14yearsago49]

That is what POWER sounds like...

[@selwynwilliams2783]

Love the sound of that Bugatti.

[@dylanmccallister1888]

The guys who drive the beast of turin in the wet are nuts. You couldn't pay me any amount to try that.

GREAT TO SEE SUCH GREAT CARS

Love these pre war cars, the Duracq 200 should have been included.

[@Biokemist-o3k]

I cannot wait to finish my 1928 Morgan RIP MG Special as wells my next project which is a 1935 MG Magnette Boat Tail racer. SO I can bring them over and run them on the track they were originally meant to.

[@pipedreamin]

The most impressive thing in this video is the pit stop that last car makes: leaves the pit with 3 spare tires and has them all the way to the FOS diamond jubilee arch, then comes out the other side with 0 spare tires - today’s formula 1 pit crews have got nothing on that!

[@Smudgie]

I wish you would also give the driver's name as well as the car.

Is the Mercedes-Benz W125 pre-war?

[@lefranor5773]

@@BluntofHwicce thank you. It looks like something from 1950.

[@Argent_99]

it was built for the 1937 racing season and that was the only season it ran (new regs came in for 1938.) building a fairly new design like that for one season only was kinda bonkers by the standard of the age, but it kinda set a trend for Mercedes, who have pulled that sort of tour de force a few times over the ensuing decades. Also, up until 1982, it was considered to be the most powerful GP car ever made, clocking in at around 625hp (on tires with the collective contact patch of a modern motorcycle...)

[@sanny8716]

@@lefranor5773 Look up w154 as well, it looks even more ahead of its time

[@jcgabriel1569]

@@Argent_99 Indeed, making a new car for just one season is bonkers, but then Mercedes themselves did one more when they built the W165 in 6 months or so, to compete in the 1939 Gran Premio di Tripoli, which ended up to be the *only* race it ever ran in. Building a new car from scratch in such a short span of time for, ultimately, just one race...

The sound and video crew here are great. Unfortunately the vocal hosts are more than useless and spoil the presentation. Be quiet and let these machines do the talking while they are running.
