The spirit of the Goodwood Road Racing Club is crossing the Atlantic with the launch of the GRRC of America.
For almost three decades, the Goodwood Road Racing Club has brought together people who share a deep love of motorsport, car culture and the unmistakable spirit of Goodwood.
Now, that spirit is crossing the Atlantic.
The GRRC of America marks an exciting new chapter in the Club’s story, beginning in California and created for the passionate community of enthusiasts, collectors, drivers and fans across the United States. Inspired by the same sense of access, camaraderie and belonging that defines the GRRC in the UK, it will share Goodwood’s heritage, theatre and love of unforgettable motoring experiences with a new audience.

Alongside the headline event, members of the GRRC of America will enjoy a carefully curated programme of experiences, beginning in California and growing across the United States and beyond.
Created with Goodwood’s unmistakable attention to detail, each experience will offer rare access to the people, places and stories that shape the motoring world - bringing members together through a shared love of cars, craftsmanship and the spirit of Goodwood.
A New
For more than 30 years, Goodwood has reimagined what motoring events can be through Festival of Speed, Revival and Members’ Meeting.
Now, we are taking that spirit to the United States, with plans for Goodwood’s first headline event outside the UK at Willow Springs Raceway - a landmark moment that will bring our unique blend of motorsport, car culture, spectacle and storytelling to a new audience.
A Passionate New
From the roar of American muscle to the purity of an air-cooled Porsche and the elegance of an Italian thoroughbred, cars have always had the power to bring people together.
As the GRRC of America takes shape, we are extending the spirit of our Club to a new community of enthusiasts across the United States — united by the same passion, curiosity and love of motoring that sits at the heart of Goodwood.
