The 1948 opening of the Circuit was met with a rapturous response, as the British public had been deprived of motor racing since the Second World War forced Brooklands to close its doors in 1939. The huge demand for wheel-to-wheel competition saw 85 drivers and over 15,00 spectators turning up to Goodwood on 18th September 1948 to support the UK's first professionally-organised post-war motor racing event. In August 1966, after 18 years of memorable competition, Goodwood closed its gates to contemporary motor racing, although the Circuit remained in continuous use as a testing and track day venue. It was the end of a chapter in Goodwood history, but not the end of the story.
On 18th September 1998, exactly 50 years to the day since the Goodwood Circuit first opened, the 9th Duke's grandson, the present Duke of Richmond, re-enacted the opening of the track at the very first Goodwood Revival meeting in the same Bristol 400 that his grandfather had used half a century earlier on the same track, untouched by the modern world. Prior to the first Revival meeting in 1998, the Circuit was painstakingly restored to look exactly as it did in its heyday, down to the very last detail.
