GOODWOOD
FESTIVAL OF SPEED 2000
June
23rd-25th 2000 was the weekend for the 8th Goodwood Festival of Speed, the
world's
premiere motorsport event, encompassing everything from the early years of
motoring to current day Formula 1, Indycars and Le Mans.
The event is
unique due to the fact that you can get extremely close to the track ,and
the cars and drivers. These photos should sum that up.
