No commentary – just unadulterated engine noise.

The Goodwood Festival of Speed is currently underway, and although we thoroughly enjoy seeing new cars revealed and old ones gleaming in the sun, the highlight of the weekend-long motoring extravaganza is undoubtedly the hillclimb course. As always, the cars going up the route are a diverse bunch, including purpose-built racecars, pre-war classics, production cars, and one-off builds.

The below video comes directly from the organizers and shows some of the best runs up the hill this year so far. It starts with a Porsche 911 GT3 Cup in a vivid multicolor wrap. After the first day of the event, this was the quickest car overall on the timesheets, and with mixed conditions (read typically British weather), it's possible that nothing else will go faster.

But not everybody is there to go fast. Mad Mike Whiddett certainly wasn't, and neither was Travis Pastrana…

After the 911 GT3 does its thing, we see a less serious run up the hill from Elfyn Evans in a Toyota GR Yaris Rally1, who opts against achieving a fast speed and instead entertains the crowd with smoky donuts. Thereafter, former F1 driver Karun Chandhok takes a ginger drive up the hill in the Le Mans-winning Mazda 787B. We'd have liked to hear the rotary engine scream a little louder, but we don't blame Chandhok for taking it easy in an irreplaceable piece of history, particularly one as wide-hipped as this.

Thankfully, you can always count on New Zealand native Mad Mike Whiddett to provide a proper show, and he spent his time on the course lighting up the rear tires of his Mazda RX-7 at every opportunity, spitting flames several feet long with every break in throttle application. He went viral in 2019 for his 800-horsepower Lamborghini Huracan drift car, which also took to the famous hill.

Things slow down a little after that, with a parade celebrating Lotus history showing F1 legends of yesteryear leading road cars like the Emira and the brand's first SUV, an all-electric beast called the Eletre. Other highlights include Travis Pastrana's Family Huckster, which starred in an insane Florida-based Gymkhana video late last year before the video concludes with a speedy run from a McLaren Artura.

These are just a handful of the amazing cars at the show this year, which also include the Bugatti Bolide, Singer's new DLS-Turbo, the Lamborghini Revuelto, the recently unveiled Hyundai Ioniq 5N, and Ferrari's latest one-off, the KC23.
