About this event

  • 9 hours

Thanks to the generous support of Thakeham, Mission Motorsport is heading back to Goodwood Motor Circuit to remember the late Chair of the Board of Trustees Meyrick Cox and others from the Mission Motorsport family who sadly are no longer with us with a fantastic day of recovery sport.

Open to those from the Armed Forces community, including veterans, their spouses and the military bereaved, thanks to our army of volunteer drivers, you can experience adrenaline-fuelled passenger rides in a range of cars as you are whisked around the iconic Goodwood Circuit.

Running concurrently to the track action, you will also get the chance to try your hand at car control out on the skidpan in one of the charity's Jaguar F-types or explore the Goodwood Estate in our off-road tours.

For those not wanting to go out on track, you'll enjoy good company, a fantastic atmosphere and a chance to make new friends, be inspired and inspire others as you share your stories of recovery.
