Since its first running at the 2000 Goodwood Revival, the Fordwater Trophy has featured grids full of sports and GT cars from the 1950s and ’60s. A broad cross-section of cars that fit the category have taken victory over the years: Lotus Elan 26R, Shelby Mustang GT350, Alfa Romeo TZ1 and Ferrari 275 GTB are just some of the machines that have reached the chequered flag first over the last quarter of a century.
Named after the fastest corner of the Goodwood Motor Circuit, the Fordwater Trophy ran twice in period. The first one, held in 1960, was won by Stirling Moss aboard an Aston Martin DB4 GT. In the multi-discipline fixture, he was competing against a Jaguar Mk2 driven by renowned Goodwood fan Roy Salvadori.
For the 2025 Goodwood Revival, the Fordwater Trophy will be open to cars built from 1964 to 1966.
