[WRC] Wales Rally GB

I think no cars where available anymore at Msport and Citroën at that time.

I'm thinking to go to Great Orme SS1 and after that go to the ceremonial start in Conwy.
They recommend to spectators to take Park and Ride car park system.
But what I'm worrying is the return bus from the stage depart at 16:00.
Do I make it in time for the ceremonial start starting at 18:00?

They also says that spectators will be able to park in a non-Rally organised car park on the Great Orme itself.
Is it better to park our car at a non-rally organised car park so that we don't have to wait the bus.
Does anyone know where the non-rally organised car park is?
Even I'm not sure if we can go out from the parking to Conwy before SS2 finishes. Is the road closed until all cars pass?

Non-rally car park is on top of the Orme - probably in a field or on open grassland, and probably not very large. There's a steep road up from Llandudno town and it should be well signed, the roads will definitely be open for you to leave to get to Conwy, but I don't know how heavy the traffic will be.....

I wondered the same thing about the park and ride buses - I don't like the idea of depending on their timings to leave so I will probably try the non-rally carpark myself.

If you don't get out in time to get to the ceremonial start in Conwy, don't forget there is a remote service in Llandudno town centre from 18:25, with refuel and time control for parc ferme, so you should have opportunity to see the cars close up.

Hi all i am hoping to go to sweet lamb but due to work commitments i wont be able to travel up the night before, i will be going up the morning of the rally i should get there around 7am. What i would like to know is do you think that will be cutting it to fine and the gates will be closed and i will end up getting turned away? i will also be buying my day ticket on the gate. I have one more question i will be going up in a bmw 330cd and its a little bit on the low side will i be able to get in and out of the car park with any problems?

Thanks in advance jason..
