    It's a brilliant calendar. Not really one bad event in there IMO.

    What is the point in including Sardinia? Italy already has a round – SanRemo, so what is the thinking behind this. As for Cyprus, not my favourite event, at least now it is a mixed event. I honestly think they have missed a trick not having a snow round – Arctic, Sweden/Norway??
    Saying that, it has 3 of the WRC’s great events – Monte, SanRemo and Argentina – as for the Safari, if it’s not the full on on Safari with proper long sections, it’s not worth doing.
    While I’d lke to see Scotland end the season, after what has happened this year with lack of entries, maybe it’s for the best.

    Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

    Actually, can someone give me a piece of advice? I really want to see an IRC event this year, but the following conditions count;
    -must be in July, August or September
    -must be easy to get to for a poor student in England
    -must be both good for viewing, and good atmosphere
    -easy to get to
    -probability is high for a great entrylist

    I know this is a lot of points, but any advice welcome!

    Good calendar. I don't understand why the two events in Portugal are so close. I prefer Acropolis Rally above Cyprus.

    The way Greek organisers think, I doubt if we ever going to see again a WRC event here in Greece.

    I really want to see what they will do with Acropolis next year, counting nowhere!!!

    Or maybe they should put it in the new up and coming championship, the NPRC! (No Proper Rally Championship)

    It´s because the cars will go by boat from Azores to Madeira and don´t need to return to Lisbon.

    If i were you i would consider going to Barum Rally in Czech republic. There are cheap flights into Czech Republic coming from UK (i think you can even fly straight to Brno). They allways have great entrylist, nice stages and great atmosphere. Another advantage is that food and drinks are not expensive, so count all that together and my choice would be Barum.
