[Bence Magyar]

Hi everybody! If there's any question about the Hungarian IRC round please do not hesitate to ask. I'll try to annswer everything from A to Z.

That is very good to know, is there any info yet about possible stages?

[Bence Magyar]

As far as I know nothing is fixed yet but I suppose it is going to be pretty much similar to the previous editions. This means fast and bumby tarmac stages in the Mecsek with not much room for mistakes. The trees by the road are punishing hard even if there is only a slight mistake. I expect a few high speed crashes from both the internationals and the Hungarians. The battle is going to be very interesting though.

Thanks again for the info, please keep us informed as the rally is approaching. I am not sure yet that i will be able to come but i think there might be some possibility.

I'm looking forward to this rally very much

The rally will be in september so it's too early to know the details but I'll be here in the future and try to inform you if there is any new information available. There is usually a massive crowd on the stages, the beer is cheap, the atmosphere is faboulus, the girls are pretty and "nothardtoget", and the countryside is also spectacular, so it's a good package for a nice weekend in Hungary!

[Bence Magyar]

You can find lot of videos on youtube for example, just search for "Mecsek Rallye". Here's one from last year: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPlBFCJ4mvs

Do you have any news about the rallying in Hungary?

The season opener (Eger Rally) will be in april and there's gonna be six or seven rounds in 2010. The field is going to be 3-4 S2000 cars (maybe 1-2 more), a shipload of Mitsubishi Evos and few R3 and R2 cars plus many various cars. I recently read an article about a guy who is building a Mitsubishi Evo X R4 for a customer driver and the car will be availible for rent. The financial crisis still in the country therefore very hard to find the budget for everybody but it's the same everywhere I guess...
