Full-throttle GT3 Shootout set for 2025 Goodwood Members Meeting

Sponsored by Goodwood Road Racing Club

The 2025 Goodwood Members’ Meeting is fast approaching, with an action-packed schedule of historic racing cars, driven by legends on an all-time classic circuit.

But among the returning crowd-pleasers, which sees Ford GT40s go wheel-to-wheel in the Gurney Cup and Ford Capri Mk3s trade paint in the Gordon Spice Trophy, will be a demonstration of more modern machinery.

The GT3 Shootout will feature a wide spectrum of homologated racers from 2006-2012 that will take to the Goodwood course on April 12-13 in a series of demos and competitive timed laps — which will follow the same format as the Sidecar Shootout which featured at this year’s Members’ Meeting.

Eight GT3 racers piloted by “legendary” drivers will aim to set the best lap time during Saturday’s qualifying session, with entries likely to include V10-engined Audi R8s, V12-engined Aston Martin DBRS9s and V8-engined BMW Z4s.

The fastest four cars will then go head-to-head in Sunday’s Shootout Final, where each will get one flying lap of the 2.4-mile Goodwood circuit, with the fastest being declared the winner.
