I'm in for the SS, marshaling the rally on the Friday / Saturday

Beers in Llandudno Sat PM sound good if anyone's going to be there?
Watch this space, we'll keep you all posted where we're going to be very soon!

Is the Evo Triangle likely to be closed on Sunday morning? My route to SS is likely to take my via the Triangle.
Not planning on breaking any speed limits, but hoping to get some nice scenic pictures of the car.
its one way north from Cerrigydrudion to the A543. theres likely to be heavy rally traffic on the B4501. And as the stage start is on the left not far from the Llyn Brenig visitors centre there could be a lot of rally and spectator traffic, especially if cars arrive early or there's a delay in stage. the exit of the stage is a little further up again and the rally cars will be given traffic priority when joining the road. so expect a fair bit of police presence and a lot of stupidly parked cars as they try and access the stages for free

I must say the omens do not look good for this SS. I hope i'm wrong, but with only 127 signed up so far (minus the usual 30 odd % who don't turn up anyway to SS after signing up) it could be a low turnout.

Not at all - 300 is a lot of people to take to North Wales, but as they offered us the space we took all of it. I'm pretty sure that people are just being more considered before putting their names down as it is a long way and we'll find that it has a better turn out that normal as no one will think "Ohh, I might pop along"

Equally, even with "only" 100+ people we'll have a great time and there will be a load of cool stuff going on that we'll be in the thick of.

To summarise... it'll be great so please stay positive!

Thanks for the info! I'll perhaps just stick to the main roads in that case

Quick question....If your name is on list does this guarantee a "pistonhead place" parking on the prom ? Any passes involved ?

Yep, it certainly does! Passes will be sent out on the Wednesday before the event.

With the passes, are they arriving on Wednesday or being sent on Wednesday? Just asking because I'll be going up on thursday or friday so won't be at home to collect mine if it comes too late.

Assume they are being emailed as PH doesn't have my postal address????? Also what time do we need to be there on the Sunday morning?

Exactly right - the pass will be attached to an email. Also included in the email will be final joining instructions / times etc.

Cheers

Could you please let us know when the emails have been sent, as some of us didn't get them last time.

Also booked in for Saturday night, so would be up for a few beers :-)
