Morgan Sports Cars at Goodwood Circuit
Some random photos from Goodwood circuit on the Morgan sports car only day; a brilliant day, lots of laughs, great food and superb company.

You got some nice pics there, your photography is improving  Where is the pic of the Morgans going round the chicane with the bi-plane landing just over their heads??

The Aero and the 'Max are iconic cars and I wouldn't for a moment deny that but "Silver Arrow"- isn't that a bit over the top?
G, based on the photos, isn't Mog89 referring to the Aero 8 Series 1 with the hardtop - which is owned and run by Brands Hatch Morgan?  My guess would be it is his nickname for the race-preped S1?

May I ask who owns the Silver Arrow now? Possibly my favourite Aero of all time! The Aero and the 'Max are iconic cars and I wouldn't for a moment deny that but "Silver Arrow"- isn't that a bit over the top? I have nothing but admiration for Matt Humphries' design abilities but I really don't think you can even begin to appropriate the name from the original: http://www.sportscardigest.com/wp-content/uploads/Mercedes-Benz-W154-3.jpg - and I speak as a fan of both Morgan and Mercedes -Benz Sorry if this sounds churlish but it's a point I think needs to be made G Come on Gerwyn, put it down, put that down, play nicely with the new man, he's only here to have fun, he means you no harm..... Quick Brian, I've distracted him, get that muzzle on ....  I know what you mean G, the real Silver Arrows were somewhat iconic and in no way has an Aero similar provenance but it's ok to call a favoured car something similar isn't it? After all I call my series 2 special Chitty Chitty Bang Bang occasionally but it can't fly  (what do you mean it isn't real??)
Cheers

I seem to get away with TOK258 on my licence plate  the older attending Morgan-fanatics said "ha, Belgian TOK, nice" but also: 'whish the real one was here too'

Fair point Simon- just me suffering from my usual combination of OCD and congenital stroppiness!!  regards G

From the photos it looks as though I should have accepted Sarah's offer and attended. Next year.
