*The offical Rally GB Thread*

Right folks,

Might as well put all the posts about this under one thread.

Who do you fancy for the win? Will Jari Matti be the man to beat? Evans for a podium?

Where are you going to watch? I've hired a camper and going for all three days

Current school of thought is Dyfi on Friday, Dyfnant on Saturday and then Alwen on Sunday

Anyone got any info about the shakedown on Thursday? Went to the one at Llandegla last year as only just down the road, I live in chestwr, and you just paid £15 on the door.

Only my second year going, went to the Chirk Castle stage as well last year which was a complete waste of time.

This year, I'll go to the shakedown on Thursday, Alwen for the 2 runs close together on the Sunday but not sure about the friday.

Is there anyway of seeing 4 runs by going to 2 stages twice? I saw someone above mentioned Hafren and Maesnant?

Could you do Garth 1, Maesnant 1, Garth 2 then Maesnant 2? Or is there too little time?

I went to chirk last year as the Girlfriend was taking here non rally fan father. What a complete mess.

However I think more people turned up there last year than they did in the whole of 2012.

Looks to be much better run this year and have actually recommended it to people.

Anyway back to the point, with the silly long walks like last year switching between stages will be quite difficult unless you have a Segway.

You seem to be forgetting there is another 90 nationals coming through after the WRC lot so the wait isn't that long. Just use it to find a different spot in the stage.

Have you heard Jimmy McRaes Firenza?? Perez's Stratos etc?

Looking at cloeg east 7.15, 9.52 for nationals, then 15:00 for second run. So only a few hours between last national and first wrc second run

I'm only using that as an example as I'm off to Dyfnant

Mmmm WRC cars in the dark.

They have expanded the viewing areas massively compared the last year at chirk mind.

Sat in Dyfnant waiting for nationals as internationals were canceled after WRC cars.

It's a good spot here:

Oh and loads of people about. We were sat in the camper and some lads walked past saying they had an hour walk from their car already

Dyfnant car park closed as of 7am as it was full!

I did Alwen if that helps?
