Description

By: Tony Gardiner .

Goodwood in the sixties epitomised all that was good about the British motor racing scene. It was a circuit where anybody could have a go, and yet the established greats like Stirling Moss would be there too.

It was a circuit where Minis rubbed shoulders with Ferraris and Ford Galaxies, MGBs diced with Triumph TRs and Morgans, and clubman's races were as keenly fought as RAC Tourist Trophy events. Most of all, Goodwood was accessible and informal: spectators with no special privileges could get really close to the action, examine the cars in the paddock and meet the great drivers of the day.

Tony Gardiner always took his camera when he went to Goodwood as an ordinary spectator during the 1960s. Over several seasons he took over 500 photographs capturing the unique atmosphere of a great race venue in its heyday and up to its closure in 1966.

The 190 carefully chosen, and previously unpublished, photographs in this book take the reader back in time to a different era of motorsport and distill the very essence of Goodwood into a delightful visual feast.
