Folks, I have tickets for the friday for this years FOS.

is there anywhere I can see an electronic copy of the running order? Looks like I will have to bail at about 5pm and I wanted to see what I might miss.

Cheer, Ace

Is there anywhere to see a list of cars that will be there? Ive seen the list of celebs/drivers on the FOS website but couldnt find a list of cars. Particularly want to see a 205 T16. Anyone know if that will be there this year again?

On the Friday? Excellent news if it is. I'm taking my dad to his first FOS and if we can actually see one running again he'll be well chuffed as he was in the service dept at Peugeot when they were in and out of the competitions dept. Can't wait.

Only thing to remember 'if' the 205 T16 is at the event and running ,it will be on the rally stage only and certain rally cars only seem to run 'occasionaly', so you could go upto the rally stage and not see the car run... which is something that has always bugged me about the rally stage!! long gaps between each car running and a very random order to if and what cars go out onto the rally stage.

Yep, thanks for the advice. I went last year and went up to the rally stage. I got loads of pics of the T16 in the paddock but never got to see it run. Hoping we will get to see it run this year!

Guys, does it make a difference will I go FOS on Sat or Sun? According to their programme, it's the same things on both days, correct? Or am I missing something?

Stuff thats breaks or crashes on Friday or Saturday obviously won't be there on the sunday.

I went Friday last year and a some cars didn't show up until the Saturday or Sunday

So I shouldn't miss out on too much if I'll go on Sat? Great, I'd prefer that.

The running order on the site is for cars going up the hill only.. almost all rally cars (very much doubt the pikes peak 405 peugeot)will all run on the rally stage only, from 9.30 till lunch then till 5.30 ish..
