Goodwood Members' MeetingThurs 23rd March 2017 ITV4 9pm The Goodwood Members’ Meeting is a weekend of motor racing which aims to recreate the atmosphere and camaraderie of the original BARC (British Automobile Racing Club) Members’ Meetings held at Goodwood throughout the 1950s and 1960s and includes cars from classic tin-tops and GTs, to motorcycles and open wheeled Formula 3 and F1 machines. Unlike the Festival of Speed (June/July 2017) and the Revival (September 2017) meetings, to which tickets are available to the general public, the Members’ Meeting tickets are only available to GRRC Members. video of a previous meeting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYZOGrUIL1w
