Whitsun Trophy race, Goodwood Revival, 2014 -- Highlight "reel"

Here's a video of highlights from the powerful cars racing in the Whitsun Trophy at the 2014 Goodwood Revival.  These were said to be some of the fastest cars on track at the entire event!

Link takes you to the Goodwood Revival site where you can watch the video. 

Personally, I wish they had left the sounds of the cars in this one rather than back up the video with music.

Congratulations, John!

Goodwood Revival 2014 -- complete race results


[Photo by:  Connie Ann Kirk]

I attended my first-ever Goodwood Revival in September of 2014.  This, after consecutive historic racing weekend events the two weekends before -- Lime Rock Park Historic Festival 32 over Labor Day weekend, and the United State Vintage Grand Prix at Watkins Glen the weekend between Lime Rock and the Revival.

Here is the article with the race results from the 2014 Goodwood Revival, on Examiner.com.  There is also a link within that article that will take you to the page where the time sheets are located!  (You're welcome!).
