Honda is taking part in the first ever Moving Motor Show
at Goodwood on 1st July, which gives a limited number of car enthusiasts the chance to test drive two
of its most exciting cars around a 3.5 mile test track.
The route includes the world famous Goodwood Hill Climb, allowing aspiring racers to follow in the
tracks of racing legends like Sir Stirling Moss, Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button.
Honda will also be exhibiting at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, from 2nd to 4th July 2010,
showcasing a selection of its racing cars and motorcycles.
Special guests will join the Honda Racing Team to pilot its BTCC-prepared Civic up the hill, World
Superbike riders Jonathan Rea and Eugene Laverty will be riding on Saturday and Sunday and Honda racing
drivers and riders will be taking part in a special 'Question of Motor Sport' live quiz on each day of
the festival.
Two Honda cars have been made available for members of the public to drive at the Moving Motor Show
on 1st July: the CR-Z, Honda’s new sporty hybrid, brings driving thrills with low emissions, while the
Honda Civic Type R MUGEN – one of only 20 being made – will use its 240 PS high-revving engine to
excite drivers over the renowned hill climb route.
On the Honda stand at Goodwood, visitors will be able to view and experience products from across
the Honda range, including cars, motorcycles, lawnmowers, generators and even solar panels.
Each day, a round of the infamous ‘Question of Motor Sport’ will be held, featuring Honda
celebrities from past and present. This fun quiz will be hosted by Tim Harvey, former BTCC champ and
Porsche Carrera Cup racer.
The Goodwood Festival of Speed is being held from 1st-4th July 2010 at Goodwood, England. Entry is
available with a pre-purchased ticket.
