18-100 Anita and Barbie

On Aug 13 one of the hottest days this year I met Anita and Barbie, dressed in heavy fireproof coveralls acting as track marshals at Goodwood race circuit in West Sussex for the Brighton & Hove Motor Club sprint meeting. Both belong to the Goodwood Track Marshals Club and regularly turn out through out the year to marshal race meetings on the course. Anita said that it is a great way to meet like minded motor race friends and it gets her out of the house. They are trained in fire fighting, flagging which is what they were doing today, car rescue and first aid. They have also marshalled at the major UK circuits of Silverstone and Brands Hatch. When I asked them to be part of the 100 strangers project they immediately agreed as Barbie said people are surprised at the number of ladies that are marshals, and hopefully your picture will inspire some more
