Goodwood has had a long love affair with American motorsport, with many a Festival of Speed presented by Mastercard highlight coming from across the pond, and when it comes to pure, brutish, American power, you can’t go far wrong with NASCAR.
With 40-strong grids, 5.8-litre V8 engines boasting over 850bhp under the hood and an annual audience in the millions, NASCAR doesn’t do things by half.
While regulations dictate that there can’t be 40 NASCARs vying for position at the Members’ Meeting, the rumble of American Thunder will ring out across the Goodwood Estate as a throng of mighty NASCAR machinery attacks Madgwick at full speed.
Previous Goodwood NASCAR highlights have included “The King” Richard Petty making a brace of triumphant appearances and Patrick Friesacher literally blowing the tyres off his Red Bull-backed Toyota Camry at the Festival of Speed.
