What about safety after this rally? Many "Zakazany prostor" or like always?
Zakázaný prostor (means forbidden area - for non-Czech speaking people) everywhere. All tapes several meters farther from the road than last year. Some friends were not allowed to walk in stage one hour before start. You can see the Forbidden area signs on onboards covering all stages (white sheets on trees). Same like it was done in Rally Bohemia this year.
I understand that now they must act somehow and I don't want to make problems to anyone. So if this style doesn't change I will simply stop going on our rallies personally. I don't enjoy the event if I can't find my own place.
Thanks Mirek for that info, i want know how it looks now and i will watch some onboards later. Maybe this is only to stop speaking for a moment, you have beautiful roads and i think smart people after what i saw when i was i Czech Republic so maybe people must understand which places are dangerous...
I understand both parties...Quote:

Rally organizers don't have the power nor capacity to fractionate the "professional" people and the laymen. Someone are there to practice a lifelong passion - and someone are just having fun with friends, maybe with few beers, like in a circus.
If you think about the etymology of the word "rally", it's about people gathering together. Too strict rules break the meaning. Coin has two sides - position yourself into the place of federation people - what can they do to preserve the sport they all love as they are operating in a pressurized state? It's difficult.
Well known extremely slippery hairpin from SS Dalov with a lot of mistakes and spins
