Booked the 4 day tickets today, including Option 1 car park permits, tickets are only £99!

Bloody bargain as went to Moto GP at Donnington, spent half the day trying to get in and out of the carpark and it was £33....

So who's coming? We're camping up there but going on a booze cruise the week before so place your orders...

 

I'll be there been going the RAC since i was 2yrs old, just wish i was old enough to remember the Group B cars

 

It's my first year Paul, any ideas where to camp? Preferably near Margham Park for the Special Stage on Sunday

 

Margham Park is crap mate looks good on the telly but your to far away from the stage, you have to walk a mile in to the forest for the action by the tight gate post.

We usually just sleep in the car. It should be good this year, weather will be dry(hopefully) so that'll make it a dusty rally & i'll be taken loads of fireworks for the night & to fire at the sheep

If its your first time mate, you'll enjoy it, especailly at service seeing WRC cars in the flesh.

Can't wait mate! Can't really sleep in the car as I think my mates bringing the kids....

Any decent campsites off the top of your head?

 

me and a mate went couple year back and it was very dissapointing a nightmere getting between the stages and then when you get there they only let you spectate from a certain area, didnt see thet much

 

I was thinking about trying to hire a Hi-Ab or wearing stilts...

 

LOL MAtt, I'll bet the welsh contingent love going through a sweet lamb...

 

Na mate sweet lamb is long gone, remember the bowl, briliant
Last year we camped up on epynt in an Rs foci(not very comfortable) and it was brill with a couple of tinnies. Be there again this year me thinks

 

Yer twas ok like roll on this year

 

Oh yes, My 3rd year, How cold was Epynt last year!!!!!
And who was letting off the fireworks at 4 in the morning?
Andy

 

I always take fireworks, even on the national round of the british rallies

 

Im not lying here but epynt last year was the coldest iv ever been, ever.
The fireworks were about 3 cars down from me and they went well with a couple of tinnies

 

What date was it last year? Is it a bit earlier in the year this time?

 

Its alway in November mate, but moved it to Seotember this year.

 

been gettin progresivley worse imo.....they try and limit spectator areas more and more each year until you are 10 deep in a 1/2 mile segment on a 5 mile stage of forest then when you manage to hop the fence they threaten to close the stage.

prices are ridiculous, marshalling crap and they plan the courses shite so you cant really see many


thats wot i reckon anyway! not going this year, been every year since i can remember as well


(oh and the firework people : u lot piss me off )

 

been over a couple of time and get to see fuck all..think ill stick to irish rallying,we don't have to pay or walk the stupid distances into stages...also it looks like Killarney it on the cards for a wrc event in the next few years!

 

Where do you get tickets and info from please?

Not for me thanks - I remember the proper rally - the no sleep till Kielder days

But saying that I do have OS maps of all that area of Wales and when we have been in the past we have never paid a penny

ill be about the place!

one thing be ready to do alot of walking to get to the right corner

 

Can't belive they got rid of the legendery RESOLFEN

 

Those were the days, 5 day rally across britain, starting at stately homes(mickey mouse stages) then into the forests, wales, scotland, lakes....

Long week, but good fun. Killer Kielder always took a few cars out at night.

 

i just about remember that!!! remember pissin in the snow writin my name and tryna walk up the stages when they were sheet ice

 

i despise the fact that its in southwales, what happend to it being the rally of GB,

think the producers must like sheep or soemthing

id go, but ill be startin uni then, and dunno if i can make it.... and its a rip off now too, used to only have to pay for parking on teh stages afaik,

bring back the yorkshire stages etc, and sweet lamb and clocaenog

 

Cant belive you paid for it!!!! lol The only statges u really need to pay for are the super specials which are cackk imo and Margam. The others just walk in


Oh and i will prob go seing as its not fare
