    Help?

    Hi everyone!

    Some of you might know me from being into touring cars a couple of years ago. Well I need some help now…

    Sad as it is my bf is into rallying, world rallying especially. He supports Subaru.

    I know NOTHING about rallying at all. It seems so different to touring cars! Can anyone give me a kinda step by step guide to what it’s all about?

    Thanks!

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rallying

    Oh I wish you could find the same book my wife bought for herself. It is rallying for female language Brilliant book.

    On serious note, I salute you Sparkle. Nice to see you want to make an effort to try to understand something what is important to you boyfriend.

    Absolutely! He'll be chuffed to bits that you're taking an interest in it.

    Thanks for your help everyone!

    AFF I don't suppose you know the name of the book your wife has?

    I've had a quick look at some of the sites and will study in depth as well, lol.

    It just seems a world away from touring cars!!

    I did ask him about it but i dont think he thought i was serious and drifted off mid conversation to the new subaru he wants... (boys!)

    Am trying to get him tickets to the round in Wales for his birthday but apparently they don't come out till June. Will there be a mad rush for tickets??

    Thanks again everyone! Also love the fact that it makes me a wonderful girlfriend! lol

    I didn't but fortunately I made a thread about it few years ago. It just took my a while to find it.

    There won't be a mad rush but I would start saving ASAP
