Goodwood Festival Of Speed

Posted By : Ian Mulford, 12-Jul-2006, 09:09pm

While one half of the club were out enjoying the Le Mans Classic and the other half Stafford I popped down to the Goodwood Festival of Speed and I would recomend it to anyone!

Pictures can be found at http://www.imulford.net/fos

One neat piece of trickery was the Renault F1 team playing the French and British national anthems on the engine of an F1 car http://www.imulford.net/blog

I know it's not really triumph related but hey, I figured someone might be interested

    Over on the TTN ( http://www.totallytriumph.net/dcforum/DCForumID41/... ) they are proposing 'Tunes to be played on an Engine'
    
    Now I'm sure that you Guys and Gals can do better!

      The ultimate has to be to get a F1 engine to play the bass riff from The Chain by Fleetwood Mack (for those who don't know it was the old BBC F1 theme) but unfortunately I wouldn't have thought you could get the engine to make a low enough note
