Up to eight modern racing sidecars, the likes of which we see racing in the world championship, face off head-to-head in a series of high-speed battles over the course of the weekend.

Sidecars are perhaps most famous for their competition at the TT, which sees these incredibly brave riders weave their way through the streets of the Isle of Man at speeds of more than 130mph. It’s exhilarating to watch, especially when you see the co-pilot throwing themselves from side to side around the back of the bike.

Their appearance at the 81st Members’ Meeting is the first time contemporary racing vehicles have competed on the Goodwood Motor Circuit since 1966.

Video shown of the bikes in action has been taken from GRRC footage.
