Anyone know what traffic will be like getting out of Crychan 1 to get to Rhondda 2 as im concerned about traffic stopping us getting out of the car parks. Need to know ASAP

Cheers.

Ally - may be too late but its bad!

I'm really looking forward to this rally now. Going on Saturday and Sunday. It's the first time in over 3 or 4 years that there are 4 possible/probable winners. Loeb, Mikko, JML and Petter could all win this - should be a great battle.

I cant wait to get there hoping for a petter solberg victory, as long as loeb is infront of mikko, he will be allowed to win im sure.

[Allyc85]

Nah not too late mate. Weve decided to stick with doing both runs through Rhondda before getting back to Cardiff for service.

Not sure if we can switch car parks though if we buy a ticket on the gate?

[pettersolberg29]

Good idea Ally. Last year a ticket on the gate was for one stage only, so no swapping stages, but I dont know about this year.

[Allyc85]

Do you know if I could swap car parks in Rhondda, would fill a bit of the long gap between runnings?

Rally GB seems really restrictive for fans.

Am I right? Rally Mexico is like a zoo. People drunk and passed out on the route!

I just hope Petter gets a win and restores his confidence. Also, I'm just crossing my fingers hoping that Mikko wins the championship. My dream scenario would be for Petter to be in the lead, Mikko second, and Loeb trailing. Then, Petter refusing to pull over and let Seb by to take the title. Will it happen? No. Can I dream? Sure.

RallyGB is really restrictive for fans. They completely over-reacted after the incident at Brechfa in 2001. Add to the fact that they usually only have 1 car park per area and you have quite a lot of speccies in a small area - instead of spreading them all out.

You could get there in time easily, but you'd have to park a long way away from the stage. It's fine if you know where you're going or if you want to cut off to a non-spectator area, but if you want to get to the 'official' spectator area then it may be a challenge!

It doesn't matter what Petter does, does it? Loeb must just be in front of Hirvonen to win, and Hirvonen must be in front of Loeb to win.

So there's no point in team orders this time, Petter can win, and I hope he does. He has won Rally GB four times before, he can do it again.
