The Subaru World Rally Tea🐭m will be joined by both world land speed record holder Andy Green OBE and✱ TV star Alan Davies at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend.

Ex-RAF Torꦦnado pilot and Cresta Run team captain Green has never been a stranger to speed, and in 1997 he became the first and only man to conquer the sound barrier on land. Aboard Richard Noble's Thrust SSC, Green recorded an average speed of 763.035mph, whilst more recently he claimed a second land speed record piloting the world's fastest diesel-powered machine to 350.092mph.

He will experience a very different type of speed however when he climbs 🅘aboard a Subaru Impreza WRC2008 on Sunday 13 July for a maximum throttle blast with works driver and championship front-runner Chris Atkins𒁃on.

Alan Davies, star of the British hit TV series Jonathan Creek and comedy quiz show QI, is also attending the Festival and will put in an appearance on Saturday 12 July. The comedian and TV star will sample the raw urgency and excitement 🔯of Subaru's latest𒉰 WRC car alongside showman and ex-World champion Petter Solberg.

"I'm really excited about Goodwood, and taking our brand new🦩 car there," said Solberg. "It's always been a big success, and we have some fun! We don't have so much pressure of competition, so I ca🌟n really show everyone a good time!"

Conducting six runs each day, Friday will see official test driver Markko Martin at the wheel, before Petter takes oveꦦr on Saturday and Atkinson on Sunday.

On an event that encompasses s𓃲o much more than pure speed, the Banbury-based team have also pledged their support to🍨 the Richard Burns Foundation in honour of one of Subaru's greatest World champions, making a total of five charity runs for the cause.
