yea absolutely awesome, best motorsport ever imo. Get so close to the action, risk is so much higher than any other motorsport too. I can't believe it elwyn we must of been litrally 2 metres away from you at sweet lamb LOL. Nice windy and wet on the hill. We went down the bottom after to warm up lol. The nice sensation of warm tea falling down my neck as i cnouldnt hold it still for shivering LOL.

I've driven round that bowl in a fiesta Sporting Trophy car, it's an awesome place, like motorsport mecca.

Unsure what happened with the white evo, but like all good mechanics the commentator said at the end of the stage they were bodging the door together with gaffa tape lol

And yeah i like F1 but Rallying is my sport!! Wont spent Ł100 to watch the F1 but happy to spend that just to watch the rally plus its over 3days normally where you can get up very close to the car, in sweden 08 i had a snow bank stop a Fiesta ST from hitting me! was only about 2 feet from me and the course but was about 4ft deep

Where were you then Harry? I was near the final hairpin left down in the sweet lamb complex, we left after all the cars had been through and moved to Myherin 2

I didnt find it that cold on Sweet Lamb, Cardiff bay on thursday evening was a different question lol 60mph winds trying to sweep your feet away from you lol
