just wondering whos going too rally gb?
i cant be arsed to walk the woods for another year so im just off to the special stage in millennium stadium!

anyone wanna go a for a drink after? for those that dont know/never been the cardiff stadium before its BANG in the middle of town

gareth

 

The Special stage is in the MS? That would be cool to go and see!

 

Nope - hoping to get time off for the revival RAC again later in the year.

No sleep 'till Kielder and 3 days of kipping in the car

We do none of the 9-5 stuff in this country anymore. If were watching a WRC round it will be abroad where even with transport and hotels it still works out 1/2 the cost

 

when is it again i always miss out on this but dont want to this yr

thanks mate

 

Rhys,
ya mate,,, can only guess how they are going too sound in there

NUTS RuS,
done it for a couple of years on the trot,,, 6 in a LWB transit,,,, wicked laugh,,, fucking cold though

i would like to see a wrc overseas a couple of friends i know do it,, may jump with them next year

diamonds,

if you never been in the woods with wrc cars,,, make sure you do it mate,,,, the pace of the cars is soo much faster than you think

 

£100 for the full hit tickets

 

it is pants pulling,,, so is every major sport in the uk

 

GARETH T, so my mates have said ive seen a video from my mate all u could hear was the ALS going then the car appeared

my mates went a few yrs ago and didnt pay went walking through the woods to it lol then someone fired a firework at a ambulance that day too lol tossers

 

they really closed in on walking through the woods mate,,, much harder this year,, but not inpossible

fireworks on sporting events=germans

 

fpmsl probably they said they saw some beach towels at 6am there

 

ive not been to the rally gb for many years now - simply refuse to have my pants pulled down by this government any more than i already get. it is almost as expensive as an entry to a single venue event - what watch when you can partake !!

 

markk, would love too have a go at a rally myself,, but money and the fact that im a bit of a shite driver dont help

done a couple of rally days which was great fun

 

i can generally offer a navigators seat for a reduced cost when im out for an event

 

i would love too say yes but theres a problem,,, im dyslexis,,, not the person you want next too you mate

 

just shout out Wooah, left, ooowww, looks bad ahead, put ya fooooking foot down, shhhiiiiittt.

 

I shall be there for. Been going for 25years now

God im getting old

 

Going to the swedish and corsica next year

Defo recommend a overseas event

 

ill be goin thurs and friday,will be sweet!!

 

Gareth, dyslexia is nothing my recent co-driver who's been standing in for Adam Ash is actually registered blind

He can see a bit (just enough to make out the maps) but deffo cant see out of the windows. I have been teaching him as its his ultimate ambition to compete in the navigators seat (as he will never be able to hold a licence to drive). He feels the movements of the car through the seat and is soooo confident its not a problem.

On our last event we came away with another class trophy

Have been on training days with some drivers who actually need the words "to me" and "to you" calling as they themselves get confused due to nerves etc.

 

i might do one day (fancy the Friday). its almost as much fun going between the stages, map reading, finding short cuts, spotting the nearest scooby and following hopeing he knows where he's going, etc. all good fun.

the prices take the mick though, thats why i'll only do 1 day rather than the lot.

i used to go to Parc De Ferme (sp?) and get autographs at about 5am in the morning.

 

Ive got so much RESPECT for Dale. Half blind & Co Driving, the lad is superb

 

thats cool and impressive

 

 

got to admit, thats funny as fook

 

im trying to get tickets thru my work but will prob only do one day as its overtime on the other days

trying to get tickets for sat so i can see special stage in the millenium stadium, then off to work for the sunday to cover the rally.

Thinking of getting up there on the fri night and having a few drinks in town.

 

Hmmmmmm fancy going again this year ,may take a drive up on the friday

 

R4N S S,
DID SOMEONE SAY DRINKS

 

Remember when I took my mum to the swedish rally. Stood 6 feet away from the road up on the snow. At the sight of the first car approaching us at full speed she just turns around and run into the woods screaming.

 

ditto what gareth said

 

if spikys going im not going

 

 

what is the cost of spectating these days then??? I've lost touch completely - we used to get 3 days off work for the Lombard RAC without fail every year, and do 2000 miles+ in half a week Last time I went was still GpB days and we NEVER paid, and generally stuck to the non-advertised stages... Sadly those days are long gone..

 

I'm going...I've been going for quite a few years now

I remember my first year a scooby was coming down a steepish forest road where we were stood at the bottom.....I almost turned and ran because I though there was no way he would get round at that speed!!

£100 is expensive but you have to admit it is ALOT more accesable to more people which is what they are aiming for I think

 

richm, showing your age now mate

 

I was only 5 years old..

lol.. nah, it seems a long time ago..
£100!!! what is that for? MS entry??
