i wouldnt suggest national day due to the noise limits,
ford fair is the only really good show and trackday in one i can think of that you would get away with noise

i recorded the 2009 and watched it yesterday and it was so nice to see all the old and modern rally cars,there was stuff from all over europe and you race your car along a proper rally stage like the world championship rac rally used to use.there was some top current works drivers there too.
here is the 2009 video
