i've got the same question for tomorrow, anybody know the stage routes? wish the organisers would just publish the maps, i'm sure they can make a health and safety case but its a pain

wasn't too bad, national field was more interesting than international i reckon, £12.50 to get into the forest though!?

It wouldn't be a proper rally without being cold, it was positively tropical compared to Rally GB each year in Wales.

Good fun but I wasn't too impressed with the spectator points on the Dalby stages, uninteresting points of the stage, not great vantage points.

Opened my back door to hear the cars early Saturday morning and nipped up in the afternoon only to miss it all. Didnt see one car, good vantage point or not!

Good night in the pub later chatting to those who did see it though!

My son was up most of the night - so missed it again. TBH though I prefer the one earlier in the year that goes through Rickaldale and the Wass woods. Quieter and better places to spectate. The other year we cycled over as it's only 5 minutes away from our house and it was just my wife and I and the marshals. They had a radio so knew exactly what was coming through and were bored and thus chatty. The boxtster was an inspired choice. hehe

It was very muddy and very slippery but other than that was a good event. Spare a thought for the family and organisers here;
