Indian Good at Goodwood
Indian Motorcycle featured on the iconic Goodwood Festival of Speed hill climb course in southern England in July 2024, with legendary Northern Irish racer Jeremy McWilliams piloting the King Of The Baggers racer and Brandon Robinson taking his American Flat Track expertise over from the U.S.
Rubbing shoulders with the greatest riders, drivers and vehicles from all forms of motorsport, the Indian Challenger RR offered festival goers a unique chance to witness the thundering sounds of the King Of The Baggers racer as Jeremy McWilliams smoked the Challenger RR rear tire during full throttle rolling burnouts on the famous Goodwood hill.
"There's not many, if any, events like this anywhere in the world," said McWilliams - who also took in the Indian Riders Fest and 'AMD Approved' Indian-only Budweis Custom Show on his trip to Europe.
"Seeing these baggers racing on YouTube is one thing, but seeing and hearing them up close is something else, so it was great to put on a show with the Challenger RR for the passionate and knowledgeable Goodwood crowds. I think we've really surprised a lot of people with the sound and performance of the bike."
The Indian FTR750 hit the Goodwood hill in the capable hands of Brandon Robinson, who has amassed nine wins and 23 podiums over the course of the last five seasons and is currently third in the 2024 SuperTwins standings aboard his Mission Foods Roof Systems FTR750.
"Goodwood Festival, what's not to love? This place is insane," said Robinson. "I didn't really know what to expect. I've always heard good things about it, but then to be here, experience it and ride up the hill with all the nostalgia, the famous riders, drivers, and all the different machines that have been so influential in motorsports is incredible. This place is nuts. I've never seen so many people in one place for a motorsport event in my life."
