2016 was the 19th running of the Goodwood Revival.

The race circuit closed in 1966 when the engine size of Grand Prix cars went from 1.5L to 3.0L, and it was felt the race circuit wasn't suited to this increase in power/speed.

The Revival was brought about to allow racing to take place using vehicles (cars & motorcycles) the like of which had raced around the peri-track circuit of the grass airfield when the track was open, which is why all the competition entrants are of a certain age.

In keeping with the theme, all vehicles within the perimeter of the race track, except those with a safety-related purpose (fire, medics etc) are pre 1966. There's even a free tractor-shuttle going round the track with, you've guessed it, old tractors.

Access to the completion/race/parade/demo vehicles is amazing, as basically none of the completion stuff is "roped off".

At the first Revival, there was a field outside of the race track that was for parking of pre 66 vehicles, the field now houses a fun fair, trade displays, and it appears the cut-off age for parking has changed to pre 1976 (guessing a rolling "Historic Vehicle" / free road tax cut-off)

This is how the Goodwood website describes the event - The smell of engines mingles with the roar of iconic race cars at Goodwood Revival, a 3 day September festival celebrating the halcyon days of motor racing.

So since smelleyvision hasn't been invented, for those that weren't there it'll have to be video footage without the smell of R....................
