WhackyWill Posted June 28, 2014 Author Share Posted June 28, 2014 Mad Mike Whiddett smokes out the Goodwood Hill If you’re familiar with Mad Mike Whiddett’s work, you’ll know that he made spectacular progress up the Goodwood hill. As one of the world’s leading (if not the leading) lights in the ever-growing sport of drifting, he and his Mazda RX-7 were always going to make their way up the hill making maximum smoke. Mike didn’t disappoint… sideways almost everywhere and plenty of tyre smoke made this one of the most crowd-pleasing runs of the day. The RX-7 has just had a cosmetic refresh before being shipped to Goodwood from the other side of the world (Mike is from New Zealand) and its highly-tuned four-rotor engine is still as healthy as ever with 530bhp. Not that outright power is the issue with a drift car: more important is the balance between power and (lack of) grip. More important to us spectators than the output is the noise. You need to hear the thing to believe it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ebized Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 No mud or rain today Saw a lot of smoke though pics/vids to come....... Looking for a vid of the Lexus that spun out of the second corner and continued spinning for a 100 metres along the grass on the straight in front of Goodwood House, amazingly without hitting anything - either some very skillfull stuff from behind the wheel or lady luck was around. Fabulous day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhackyWill Posted June 28, 2014 Author Share Posted June 28, 2014 (edited) Who's the King Will? sorry not quite sure who that is. Richard Petty Richard Lee Petty (born July 2, 1937) is a former NASCAR driver who raced in the Strictly Stock/Grand National Era and the NASCAR Winston Cup Series. "The King", as he is nicknamed, is most well known for winning the NASCAR Championship seven times (Dale Earnhardt is the only other driver to accomplish this feat),[1] winning a record 200 races during his career,[1] winning the Daytona 500 a record seven times, and winning a record 27 races[1] (ten of them consecutively) in the 1967 season alone. (A 1972 rule change eliminated races under 250 miles (400 km) in length, reducing the schedule to 30 [now 36] races.) Statistically he is the most accomplished driver in the history of the sport and is one of the most respected figures in motorsports as a whole. He also collected a record number of poles (127) and over 700 top-ten finishes in his 1,184 starts, including 513 consecutive starts from 1971–1989. Petty was the only driver to ever win in his 500th race start, until Matt Kenseth joined him in 2013. Petty is a member of the inaugural class of the NASCAR Hall of Fame. He was inducted into the Hall in 2010.[2] Petty is a second generation driver. His father, Lee Petty, won the first Daytona 500 in 1959 and was also a 3 time NASCAR champion. Richard's son Kyle was also a well-known NASCAR driver. Richard's grandson, Adam, was killed in an accident at New Hampshire International Speedway on May 12, 2000, five weeks after the death of Lee Petty. Adam's brother Austin works on day-to-day operations of the Victory Junction Gang Camp, a Hole in the Wall Gang Camp established by the Pettys after Adam's death. Petty married Lynda Owens (who died on March 25, 2014 at her home in Level Cross, North Carolina after a long battle with cancer, at age 72) in 1958.[3][4] They had four children: Kyle Petty, Sharon Petty Farlow, Lisa Petty Luck and Rebecca Petty Moffit.[5] The family resides in Petty's home town of Level Cross, North Carolina and operates Richard Petty Motorsports. The Richard Petty Museum was formerly in nearby Randleman, North Carolina but moved back to its original location in March 2014.
