I am rereading Wodehouse this week, and Bertie just lost a fair sum at the Goodwood. As did Bingo Little. The Inimitable Jeeves.
It looks like a great day out! Better, as any rate, than the soggy farce that is the British Grand Prix is shaping up to be, anyway....
They really did things odd in the old days...a blower in front of the car?
My older brother once re built a Riley hill climber with a massive Roots blower and an SU you could put your arm through! The original SU was so corroded, he made a set of wooden patterns and had a new ones cast. Fantastic bit of kit! The torque the thing made was phenomenal. Who needs a computer eh?

JuliaM: I was at Mallory Park (leics) over the weekend. The ride up was akin to being in attacked from 360 degrees by jet washers - for 4 hours.
CI-RD: Odd indeed, but I guess they were pioneers. I also saw Sammy Miller's Moto Guzzi 500cc V8 motorcycle!!! Pistons like thumb thimbles.
TonyF: Brute force personified.
