[Fot] Some Goodwood Revival pictures

[PegAndBobM at aol.com]

DART=-Dizzy Addicott  Racing Team  which was sold by  Dizzy, and  I believe 
eventually evolved  with some connection to  the Marcos automobile.  Item 
of interest...I have a Elva Mk VI driven by  Dizzy to a second place finish 
at the Brands  Hatch Boxing  Day Derby.  John Arnold, another member of RMVR 
knew Dizzy and  told me he was a club racer best known for a Lotus 19(?)  
into which he had  stuffed a large Buick V8 .

Finally  am getting around to posting a few pictures form Goodwood Revival.
Three  are of a 1964 TR4 "SLR ".  This group was small bore endoro cars  
that
often had extensive rebody work done.  In the case of this car,  it was a
total rebody.   Friend of the TR250K I guess.  It  did race in the early 
60's
in England.
Driven by owner Tony  Griffen.  He was running 10th when he dropped out on
lap 6.  The  car that won was the ugliest sports car I have ever seen. A
rebodied Mini called a "Mini Dart".  It is the leftmost car behind  the
one with the lips in the group shot.

Goodwood was  fantastic.  Great costumes.  I did the best I coulddressing,
but  really did not have the duds.  IF you ever go, there are several  
vendor
stands selling vintage close.  IF you wear a white mechanics  outfit you can
easily get into the pits.  They were out of my size by  Sunday -- though I
have bought one since.  Will make a great flagger's  outfit.  Would need a
real clean shop and car to wear one for actual  mechanic work.  Lots of the
guys did have them on and many showed  extreme oil leaks!

Great car and motorcycle racing.  Very  spirited.
There was one race for 60-64 Closed Cockpit GT cars  that required a
driver
change. At one point the drivers  included Jackie Oliver, David Hobbs,
Brian
Redman, and  Bobby Rahal. None figured in the win which was a 1963 Ferrari
330 LMB driven by  Bobby Verdon-Roe.  My personal highlight was  following
Jackie Stewart through the tunnel and watching all  the people coming the
other way see and recognize him.   Great guy as he shook anyone's hand
that
was  offered.
