McRae Skoda test

[racing snake]

Can anyone tell me where Colin McRae's pre Rally GB test is taking place and when. Or any ideas where i might look on the web.
Many Thanks

I would doubt they will advertise where it will be. Probably be a closed test anyway.

Its been what, two full years since he was sat in a WRC?

I have a good idea where he would test the car as i know someone in the 'business'. all i can say is McRae's been there several times before and its a rallyschool somewhere in Wales

No, not Higgins a little less known rallyschool this is perhaps that has a nice test circuit that i have been around a few times aswell.
If it happens there i may well be able to go up if told, but unfortunatly visitors will probably not be allowed.

It says on WRC.com that colin is 'likely' to do a national event before Rally GB 'to get up to speed'. But it does not say which event or whether it will be in the Skoda

This weeks MN said that McRae and Grist are likely to be at the Park Systems Furnature Stages in September, either competing or running as course car, in the Skoda.
