Add to a time capsule and win a dream day out at Goodwood

| 19 Jul 2013

One of your mementos could be buried in a time capsule at Goodwood thanks to a competition being launched by C&SC, Goodwood and Credit Suisse. Plus, if your item is selected, it will not only join some important motoring artefacts, but you will win a dream trip to the Goodwood Revival Meeting.

To commemorate Credit Suisse's restoration of Goodwood motor circuit's famous race control tower, a time capsule is to be buried in a special ceremony during the Goodwood Revival Meeting on Sunday 15 September.

It already contains such artefacts as a raceboot worn by Jochen Mass at Le Mans in 1989, Emanuele Pirro's 2006 Le Mans-winning gloves, a signed photo from Sir Stirling Moss, plus a range of pictures of the Revival by local schoolchildren.

Now C&SC is launching a competition to find the ultimate bit of reader's memorabilia to add to that list.

It can be anything Goodwood or Goodwood Revival-related, from a painting or period photo to a badge, ticket or programme, or even your memories of Goodwood written out.

From all the entries received, we'll select a top three and invite a public vote on which item should be included.

The winner will not only have their token added to the capsule, but will receive two entry tickets to Goodwood Revival on 15 September, an invitation to the time capsule burial ceremony, plus exclusive access all day to Credit Suisse Race Control where they and a guest can mix with the drivers and watch the event from a sensational viewing platform.
