I've wanted to go to this for years, but always missed it. Will endeavour to make it this time. Anyone else coming from Southampton?

I'll probably be heading down there but a bit disappointed with the entry this year. Not enough WRC cars and no Andy Burton either. But it's the only chance for those in the area to see top class rallying so I guess I'll make the effort.

Finally managed to get the time off work with all my mates as well. Can't wait to go. I have always gone to the moving display in the Gardens and managed to go to the scrutiny in 2009 but this will be my first time with it. All I want to see is a Metro 6R4 ripping it around the course and I will be happy.

I'm going to say that I want to come to this, but I can see my day being filled with something else.

That Escort was safety car a couple of years ago and was absolutely flying.

Any spectator point tips chaps? Out of the way ones?

Wareham Forest stage has plenty of out of the way places if you're prepared to walk. There are other ways into it though rather than using the official car park, which is a long way out if you're spectating on the Ringwood/Uddens stages. There's a handy lay by on the A35 just west of the Morden crossroads. Almost opposite is a track that will lead you onto the stage where you've got a good choice of viewing. We do pay, I should point out, but that car park is a long way out and don't really like getting stuck in traffic. Also if you head south from the Morden crossroads towards Wareham there's a lay by down there where you can walk into the stage. Need to get there early though. There are various ways that the stage can go though, especially if the loggers have messed the tracks up as they did a couple of years ago, so I can't guarantee that the cars will actually use that part of the forest.

The Quay was good tonight, but no where as good as when it was in the gardens!

Wareham has the most relaxed marshalling to get close to the action.
