In 2012, the Goodwood-featured car brand was Lotus. A 3-D infinity loop was designed, resembling the grandest, most ambitious Scalextric track ever imagined. The track itself is a triangular section of 6mm flat sheet metal with a continuous curved surface painted white. Multiple cranes were used to erect the installation and place six significant Lotus cars onto its surface. The cars, which were loaned by Classic Team Lotus and the Lotus F1 Team, included a green and yellow Type 32B, the car in which Jim Clark won the 1965 Tasman Series in Australia and New Zealand, and a red-and-white Type 49, in which Graham Hill raced to the crown. The other cars were a JPS-liveried Type 72, in which Emerson Fittipaldi became the sport's youngest champion; a black-and-gold '79 responsible for Mario Andretti's world title; a yellow Lotus 99T driven by Ayrton Senna; and the current Lotus grand prix car as driven by Kimi Raikkonen and Romain Grosjean.

With the Festival over, the sculpture is being dismantled and will be brought to Lotus's Norfolk headquarters.
