Held on the grounds of the Goodwood Estate in Chichester, West Sussex, UK, over 150,000 vintage enthusiasts are encouraged to dress in period clothes to help immerse themselves in a historic car race day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My family and I had booked to attend the Goodwood Revival finals day on Sunday, 13th September 2020, however, due to efforts to fight the coronavirus pandemic, the event has sadly been postponed until 2021. The Revival attracts such large crowds of spectators that enforced social distancing measures would have impaired the visitor&#8217;s enjoyment of the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Watch the greatest Revival races online from 11th-13th September 2020<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite being unable to hold the event this year, the Goodwood team has searched the archive and selected the greatest races from the history of the Revival to stream online over 11-13th September 2020. Fans can still immerse themselves in the spirit of Goodwood Revival by tuning in from 10:00 am on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwood.com\/grr\/event-coverage\/goodwood-speedweek\/2020\/9\/live-stream-revival-greats\/\">Goodwood Road and Racing website<\/a> and on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Goodwood.Revival\/\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/goodwoodrevival\">Twitter<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/goodwoodrevival\/\">Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Goodwood SpeedWeek, 16th-18th October 2020<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Goodwood is also taking the opportunity to preview <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwood.com\/grr\/event-coverage\/goodwood-speedweek\/2020\/7\/what-is-goodwood-speedweek\/\">Goodwood SpeedWeek<\/a> presented by Mastercard. Held without spectators at Goodwood Motor Circuit, this inaugural event will combine the best aspects from the Revival, the Festival of Speed, and their Members&#8217; Meetings to add to its exclusivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Annual Revival favourites such as the RAC TT Celebration for GT cars and the Grand Prix race for the Goodwood Trophy, as well as supercar debuts and new car reveals from the Festival of Speed. Cars will leave the circuit to use areas normally reserved for spectators or buildings. There will also be the first-ever set of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwood.com\/grr\/event-coverage\/goodwood-speedweek\/2020\/8\/super-special-competition-coming-to-speedweek\/\">rally stages<\/a> on both tarmac and gravel within the Circuit, gathering cars that represent nearly half a century of the World Rally Championship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event will be streamed live through the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodwood.com\/motorsport\/goodwood-speedweek\/\">Goodwood Road and Racing website<\/a> and their social media channels on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Goodwood.Revival\/\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/goodwoodrevival\">Twitter<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/goodwoodrevival\/\">Instagram<\/a>.

It also happened to be the birthday of a family member and taking the Revival as inspiration, I drew the 1958 Lister-Chevrolet &#8216;Knobbly&#8217; in pencil as a gift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There were many beautiful classic cars at Goodwood Revival, but I chose to draw the 1958 Lister-Chevrolet &#8216;Knobbly&#8217; as its aerodynamic design, sleek, elongated curves, side exhaust pipes, and unique appearance immediately appealed to me. It was also one of the historic cars racing that day. This particular model caught my eye just before it was due to race on the circuit. I changed the racing number to a 7 as I knew it was the favourite number of the person for whom I gifted the drawing. I thought that a pencil drawing would give a handcrafted and classic, vintage look, as opposed to an oil painting in colour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"590\" src=\"https:\/\/www.charlotteigguldenart.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Listersketch-1024x590.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1181\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.charlotteigguldenart.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Listersketch-1024x590.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.charlotteigguldenart.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Listersketch-300x173.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.charlotteigguldenart.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Listersketch-768x442.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.charlotteigguldenart.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Listersketch-1200x691.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.charlotteigguldenart.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Listersketch.jpg 1257w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption><em>1958 Lister-Chevrolet &#8216;Knobbly&#8217; car at Goodwood Revival, pencil drawing by Charlotte Iggulden<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I am naturally inclined towards vintage and classic cars, possibly because I have been raised in a family that has enjoyed, collected, and driven classic cars over the years. However, as a fine artist, I think that classic car designs have a sophisticated degree of individuality and are incredibly beautiful; their handcrafted look appears as a work of art. I will admit that classic cars are not necessarily the most practical, but they are beautiful to look at and the feeling you get when driving or being driven in one adds far more to the driving experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"677\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.charlotteigguldenart.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Lister_Goodwood_Revival_drawing_cropped.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1185\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.charlotteigguldenart.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Lister_Goodwood_Revival_drawing_cropped.jpg 677w, https:\/\/www.charlotteigguldenart.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Lister_Goodwood_Revival_drawing_cropped-300x269.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>Closeup of the 1958 Lister-Chevrolet &#8216;Knobbly,&#8217; pencil drawing by Charlotte Iggulden<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>Lister Motor Company<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Founded by Brian Lister in 1951, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lister.com\/\">Lister Motor Company<\/a> is Britain&#8217;s oldest car racing manufacturer and was the country&#8217;s most successful sports racing car of the 1950s; it won almost every circuit in the UK and was virtually unbeaten overseas.
