The 2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed, scheduled for July 5-7, will celebrate the “best” of the landmark event’s first 20 years. “The biggest, best, fastest, loudest and most outrageous vehicles of all time will be invited…” reads the event’s promotional release, and if history is any indicator that is exactly what attendees will see.
“I really can’t believe that we’ve been staging the Festival of Speed for 20 years already,” said Festival founder Lord March. “The time has simply flown by! I wasn’t too certain if anyone would be interested in coming along to our very first event back in 1993. We expected around 2,500 people, and over 25,000 turned up! Today the Festival attracts over 185,000 enthusiastic and knowledgeable spectators, which I just could not have imagined way back in 1993. I think it is safe to say that the event now looks like it is here to stay!”
