Once the guys in the red flight suits had done their thing, there was a break in the flying displays, so time to check out the Wheels side of the show. Must admit, it wasn't quite as impressive as the flying, but then a static car display is always going to struggle, competing with screaming engines & coloured smoke. Lots of modern Japanese sports cars on show, which aren't really my thing, but a few hotrods & classics scattered between them. Many were queuing to drive down the runway, though I'm not sure if they were racing or simply displaying.
The Wall of Death never fails to draw a crowd. Roll up, roll up!

I'm guessing he's Dutch. Or mad. Or both.
If you need to polish your Monkey, this would seem to be the very stuff.

Dunsfold's answer to the Goodwood Festival of Speed sculptures? As Top Gear's filmed here, I wondered whether the 3 amigos had a hand in this display?
A modern Morgan.

The White Helmets, the longest serving motorcycle display team in the World, made up of members of the Royal Signals regiment, still riding Triumph T140 Bonnevilles.

They were definitely struggling a bit over the bumpy ground -is it me or do they all look a bit precarious here? -not that I'd want to try it.
