Best racing you will ever see. Excellent drivers and car set-up. Thank you for the excellent coverage.
I don't know why it is but it's difficult to see just how fast the cars are going down the front straight as compared to seeing them from the rear, driving away from the chicane. From the rear you can see just how fast that are rocketing down the straight past the stands and beyond. Love all the Goodwood races. Thank you for posting them!
Fantastic!! Cobras, Jags, Cobras, Jags, Cobras, Jags! Yeaaaah!! I love Cobras forever!

One of the best races if Seen
Excellent racing Excellent Commentating and automatically a great show gentleman. You really made racing real fun. The Hall Of Fame for the best announcer and vintage Auto racing award. Champ On. One love Afro G64 lamiert Park Village LA Crenshaw 👼❤️🔥
awesome racing, such beautiful cars.
Boy the tire package really evens the field and makes for some of the best racing in the world...
Exciting final battle, worth watching. And remember, miss the Ferrari
très belles courses ; intéressantes passionnantes à regarder à suivre c 'est autre chose que la F1 d aujourd'hui ,le meeting de Goodwood c 'est magnifique
What a save @15:47.. Absolutely stunning.. That could go horrible wrong, for those cars.
WOW! What a fantastic race! 89 E Type is a cold as ice racer. Just great fun!
He bumped the leader, cheap "win". At least the battle for second was clean.
Interesting point re the safety car of all things. Note the reg. no: BUY 1 - the original registration of the legendary Lightweight 'E' - 4 WPD. The car carried the BUY 1 plate in 1961 before changing to 4 WPD in '62...
BUY 1 is now on a BMW X6 - it was actually registered to it less than 2 weeks ago as I write this comment
@@olliebonugli8881 Thanks for the update! Good to see the number in regular use.
Great racing! However it's unfortunate how the battle for 1st between the #89 E-type and the Cobra of Van Der Garde ended in a bit of dirty contact.
It looks like they touched but there appears to be no body damage? Did 89 bump the cobra's wheel? Hard to see if there where any tell tail damage on the Jag.
I think the jaguar is faulty , you can see the pilot steering to the left for a fraction of a second , did he do it on purpose or not ? One can argue it was to recover from the glide , but i have the feeling he pushed the cobra out ...
At the 1:17 to go mark, the 'E's front wheel definitely twitches left. A necessary adjustment, or a deliberate nudge? I love the Lightweights, but it did look slightly fishy...
Wonderful cars ..... & fast !
Absolument superbe !
Great race!
(Haha, Jimmy Broadbent brought me here :D )
me too :-)
It was all on Shephard !!
15:38 He spun like a BOSS:)
Fascinating racing ...
Great race!
Regarding putting roofs on Cobras, my guess is that they put fiberglass roofs on the ragtops in order to turn a sports car or roadster into a GT car for the purpose of the rules of this race. You could buy after market removable hard tops for Cobras and Tigers (as well as most ragtops like the XKE roadster) back in the day; but they generally conformed to the soft top lines. These hardtops seem to be shaped more like fastbacks , probably for aerodynamic reasons. Which brings me to my question about this video. I feel like I came in the middle of a movie. I thought this footage was circa 1964, when I never missed an SCCA road race at Watkins Glen , NY. Stingrays, XKEs, 289 Cobras, a must be one of a kind Sunbeam Tiger (Which had Daytona Coupe body work done on it), Ferrari GTOs, etc. But because of the shape of the hard tops and the name of the vid , this must be a vintage car race Am I correct? I never knew there were enough 289 Cobras made to take them racing almost 55 years later.
I'm curious. I dont remember any races in the US where Jag XK-E types were competitive with Cobras. By the time I started racing in 1968-+969, we never had any E types even showing up. At least in SCCA amateur racing.
Were these Cobras running restricted engines or were the Jags allowed more modification than we had in SCCA?
These are lightweight or semi lightweight e types putting out 340 bhp. At the 1964 Goodwood TT they were able to beat the Shelby American Inc. Cobra Daytonas
A majority of race tracks are way bigger than Goodwood. That's where the Cobra's power came in handy. Or they were put in the back like the Mustangs and Camaros. I honestly don't know how Goodwood qualifying works, but usually the muscle is at the front, sometimes they use a reverse grid where the Mustangs, Camaros, Falcons, etc. will have to cut through the field.
@@johncarl5505that's on the Gerry Marshall trophy for later touring cars at the Members' Meeting. This grid is the RAC TT Celebration race at the Revival meeting. And here, the grid is decided by the qualifying times; fastest cars in the front.
That was some race right on
89 E-type pushed nr.2 Cobra on purpose off the track ! He did it again a year later with Red gold Cobra. Not a fair player, I say.
@56Stick....Saw your comment before watching this....After watching this race I have to agree with you...This was a really close race ruined by bad sportsmanship at the end.
@@therealmaxspeedster Apparently, you and 56Stick have never raced in competition among gentlemen. I'd say it was unavoidable.
"Gentlemen" don't ram their opponents off the track. EDIT: Just watched highlights of 2017 RAC TT just to check on 56Stick's claim of this dude wrecking people 2 years in a row....2017 was way worse than this...Guy spent most of his race banging his fender into the back of Cobras that he couldn't pass cleanly then finally drove straight through the back of a guy to try and get the lead...He got a 30 sec penalty for that...Should have got DQ'ed...He's gonna kill someone.
Yes E-Types have a thing about Cobras.
@@therealmaxspeedster And "Gentlemen" (cowards, dilettantes) don't win races either. They chicken out and then complain. If you're not willing to go to the edge and stay there you shouldn't be racing.
j 'ai oublié , très belle magnifique voiture
i really enjoy watching these races, but unfortunately i know nothing about the rules... how much modification is allowed for these cars? i mean, even the small cars do an impressive job against their competitors...?!
Are there still people who wants to see F1 ?
Ritchie Raven , not me!
Sure not me !
formula bland?
Sometimes I wants to.
LOL I wants to see it all the time. Don't you wants to?
The Sunbeam Lister Tiger is awsome...
at around the 59:58 mark, somehow betting that the driver of number 89 was probably sent to the Goodwoods Principles office for spinning out that Cobra......
Love these races and the cars, but really wish the videography was better. Stop showing so many close-ups of the cars and show us the race. I see the same thing with pretty much all racing coverage to include commercial TV. The camera needs to pan back and give us a view of not only the cars, but where they're going and the track ahead of them in the same shot. We should be able to see the the corner entry, apex, corner exit, and upcoming straight all in the same frame as the cars are moving through a turn. But the way the cameras are typically used we can't see the racer's line.
Whoever's in charge of setting up the cameras perspectives needs to do HPDE or some other track events so that they have a clue. But, unfortunately, as great as these cars and the races are, it can be frustrating to watch.
Thank you
So are they using Bias Ply tires?
quick question, that red #1 Cobra, se that it has something on it's roof, is that there for areo dynamics ???
I think it's for the helmet if the driver is tall.
Fantastic
Magníficas lines
Un Ferrari 250 LM corriendo en GT? Si nunca fué homologado...
Why didn't you show the final results
Are they running on period correct tires also?
They look thin.
Johnnyc drums all original crossplies as they were pre 66
I can't imagine how hard it is to race the Ferrari when the only thing you hear in your head is:
DO NOT CRASH THE $50,000,000 CAR

One historic racer once said, that you don't think of the value when you're racing the car, because you're easily the worst driver in the grid if you were to do that.
Opposite-lock seems to be the order of the day with the Cobras.
She's so heavy
Gare bellissime, piloti corretti
no replica at goodwood ! 😉
plenty of replicas, like David Harts Kirkham Cobra
@@timekeeper6968 His Kirkham car has a black band across the nose. This is a different car
wrong
@@timekeeper6968 Any evidence?
Aren't the Cobras massively more powerful than the E-Types?
I guess, in modern-day historic racing, not as much...
I read somewhere that someone managed to talk to one of the mechanics of the no.89 E Type, and the mechanic told him that the E Type's engine had been tweaked to produce up to 420bhp!
out of interest does anyone know the regs for these races? for example are these 4.2 E types and 289 Cobras or what?
It's Pre 1966. So the E-Types are 3.8 and the Cobras are 289.
I missed out on the history of putting roofs on Cobras.
Was it an aftermarket thing, before Shelby came up with the Daytona?
Johnnyc drums purely for racing and aero dynamics, roll cages etc
@@maudwagner7211also, the aerodynamics were improved by the roof...
89 e-type needs a 15 sec penalty .dirty racer
Looks like Lewis took a page out of the book of Shedden's race tactics.
You need to switch to slot cars. Shedden and Lewis are real race drivers, and they keep racing alive, attractive and profitable.
How much horsepower for these cars ? & top speed ?
That AC Cobra produces about 150 hp
@@FinTume LOL good one!
Undeserved Driver took the checkered flag.
blatant touring car nudge!!

Pure trash! I'd like to know how many have technically modified construction from the original build specs. ALL should be racing on Bias ply tyres!
And they should be smoking pipes, no helmets of course and there should be a death every three or four races.
They have the tyres they used to use and also there all stock in terms of power so shut up
@@quinnboy3296 They aren't stock in terms of power at all. The #89 E-Type puts out over 400 bhp.
@@oldlud8971 yh remember in the times these cars race they where not stock
