We had the very good fortune to be able to run our Lones' Morgan at this year's Goodwood FOS. It was really something to be able to have the opportunity to open her up! Braking on the other hand, was another matter...
I've had a good look online, but can't find a full stream of the event anywhere. It was streamed live on YouTube, and you could replay it for a couple of weeks, but now it's all gone.
I don't suppose anyone here might have a copy or know where I could get one?
Thanks!
Owners of the Lones' car.

I saw your car! I even posted a couple of pictures, they are in this forum somewhere.
The full coverage of all three days of FoS is available on the Goodwood website but for members only. If you're not a GRRC member then I think joining as a "fellow" for £39 gets you access (but don't hold me to that).

I too saw and admired the car and took some pics but also missed her running up the hill.

Bud, you should venture up the Oulton Park for the Gold Cup weekend in August. Probably the best drivers' circuit in the UK and extremely good for spectators with a number of viewing points offering paroramic views. Much more interesting than airfield derived circuits.
You will of course need to get a passport to venture past Watford Gap and you'll need your Damarts too!

You will of course need to get a passport to venture past Watford Gap and you'll need your Damarts too! Thanks for the recommendation. Being adventurous, we sometimes go as far north as Silverstone, for their excellent Classic meeting, so it's not that much further from here to Oulton Park, is it? I must admit to finding the Goodwood events a bit too commercial and increasingly (IMHO) pretentious in recent years. If you fancy a trip across the channel, I can thoroughly recommend Vintage Montlhery. Sadly the next one is not until 2019, but it is a superb event. Check out some of the videos on YouTube.

Oulton is about 2 to 2.1/2 hours north of Silverstone. The Gold Cup is not heavily commercialised. Personally, the commercialisation turns me off as you just get the feeling that one is considered a walking wallet, the objective being to pillage one at every opportunity.
Oulton will be a long drive for you from Hampshire but I am sure that you would enjoy it thoroughly. It's relaxed and the circuit produces challenging and good racing.
