IRC Rally Scotland 2009

Come on guys, child tickets start at £5 to see all the action from the service area, how can you complain?

Would be great for rallys to be still be free, but £50 for 3 days entertainment dosnt seem to bad to me. Especially when it costs me £46 to watch rasenal for 90 minutes!

Would be good to see you over here Donney. I believe that Travelodge have a sale on at the moment with some £9 rooms available, have a search on their website, might save you a bit of cash.

Easyjet also have direct flights to Edinburgh from various places in Spain.

Thanks for the hint I'll check that.

Is there any more information where the rally HQ will be based, will it be in Perth or in Stirling. I see on the website that they want to use both, but does anybody know where service will be located? No news of possible stages that will be used. I want to plan my trip but i prefer to wait untill we have some more decent information.

You could book your flights now (to Edinburgh I'd say) and then you can arrange accommodation etc after the route is announced (May 13th). I have seen a couple of proposed stage locations but no idea of the route in full yet.

Ok, J4MIE, thank you for the info. Keep us imformed, will you? I can't book the flights yet, because they aren't online yet.

I guess the Trossachs are a specific area in Scotland?

Yes it's a national park, West of Stirling.

I think that the start will be in Perth, so going by the other link would say three stages repeated in Perth (will probably use Craigvinean as it has quite a lot of milage), then second day in the Trossachs with the finish in front of Stirling Castle on the Saturday.

All this is just guesses though of course
