Here are my offerings from this years Goodwood Festival of Speed (Sussex, England) - there are not many of moving cars - I wanted to savour the time rather than faff with cameras - but believe me, the cars do move!! (200 different cars of all ages from all types of motorsport ran up the hill each day - F1 old and new, sports cars, supercars, NASCAR's, Rallycars, Can-Am, Indycar, dragsters....the list goes on and on. Alan McNish took the current F1 Toyota up the very narrow, very twisty 1.18 mile 'hill' in a record 41 sec's - spectacular.)

For those who dont know Goodwood, each year a manufacturer is 'featured' - this year it was Renault. The featured manufacturer gets the prime spot in front of Goodwood house to show off their sporting heritage and and install a little piece of artwork on Lord and Lady March's front lawn - this is what renault came up with (yes, those are real F1 cars up there - not models!):







Pagini Zonda moving down the hill (God I love this car):




Underneath the 'instalation' lived Jenson Button, Jarno Truli's spare car and the Renault F1 pit crew for the weekend!:



Here's Jens returning home after a blast up the hill:
