This was such an exciting race to watch, the visual style of the cars, the engine noise, watching the drivers's sawing at the steering wheel for control. This is what racing is supposed to feel like as a spectator. Ferraris, Mustangs, TVR, AC Cobras....these drivers are fearless....aren't some of these cars worth 7 figures??? I am amazed at the way they push these vehicles, I am a fan of the Goodwood races!

The most enjoyable, wheel to wheel racing I've seen in years, and the underdog TVR emerging victorious over the more famous marks. Pushing 50-year-old cars that hard, 1 minor excursion, and the Jag nicking the "wall" but just soldiering on. Simply marvelous!

That lead battle between the Cobra and the Griffith was unbelievable. I was cheering like a baby for that TVR when it came behind that red cobra, and it was unbelievable watching this tiny thing carve its way to the first place. More brilliant was watching the gt250 wrestling with the wheel for grip and those ferocious gear shifts !!! It was a Motorsport orgasmic thing to watch . Thanks Goodwood

Seriously, is there anything more breathtaking than watching E-Types, Cobras and DB4's race each other! these are the most beautiful cars in the world doing what they were meant to do. Except the shunts. I hate the shunts! To see any of these cars get even a scratch will make me cry... Thanks Goodwood for this amazing spectacle!

Just shows how motor racing lost it's way after the 60's. If motor sports in general want to bring back the crowds, they need to look at just what makes these 60s GT races at Goodwood so great. No wings or downforce schemes, no slicks, no earsplitting turbos, just production based street legal cars grouped by basic horsepower to weight ratio classes.

When cars get too fast and have too many electrical enhancements the racing goes out of the window. While cars have "improved" immensely over the years the fact is the drivers haven't they are still human and its just not possible to throw modern cars around in the same way with all the extra power and speed and in some cases aerodynamic turbulence. This is just proper racing that anyone with breath in their body can enjoy, they don't have to be petrol heads. Today's racing can still be interesting for those who are still into all the facts, figures and strategy, but it becomes ever less interesting to the vast majority of people, which as you say is how racing has lost its way, and its mass appeal.

And I'm talking about how yours is staying with the battle for the lead instead of constantly getting distracted with backmarkers. They do that. Every. Single. TIME.

I was stunned by the race performance of the TVR Griffith! Back in the late 1960s I worked as a mechanic for a BMC dealership that sold the early version of these cars equipped with a Ford 260 V8. The car sold for $4,000 and had a 0 to 60 mph of 3.8"!!!!!!!!! It was a very "interesting" car to drive however as it had a tendency to get away from you if you didn't pay very close attention. I used to delight in pulling up alongside Pontiac GTOs at 40 mph and then put the pedal down in 4th gear. The look on the other driver's face as I pulled away from them with both rear tires smoking was, as they say in the TV Ad, priceless! All this said does anyone know what year TVR Jordan's car is, and what does it have for an engine?
