Those are Crosscarts, rather new thing in Finland but has found a lot of interest. Looks very fun and it can be raced in normal roads like in rallying. Killeri is actually quite lame track to try it ;)Quote:

Saliuk --- Skoda S2000
Now something of slightly bigger interest: an onboard video by Yle Ralliradio from the basically all-new SS Torittu: Yle Keski-Suomi, Ralliradion Toritun EK-esittely | Yle Keski-Suomi | Tv | Areena | yle.fi
Stage with a name Torittu appeared last time in 1985, but this stage shares only a couple of kilometres with that, and now to opposite direction as well. Of the current entries, perhaps Fabrizio de Sanctis is the only one that have driven Torittu before :-)
For me it looks little difficult from spectating point of view. Lots of flowing, fast bends, nothing really particular, but of course you can't get the feeling how a stage is from a video. Big part of the stage is on a narrow road. Also about the wider road towards finish, they say there are corners with loose gravel in it.
Also, Jarkko Nikara commented for FRC's Facebook at the end of last Saturday's event in Laihia, that he aims to get Mini WRC for next FRC event in Kouvola in order to test for NORF.
Last week FRC rules were added with a part that all events should allow new generation WRC cars as an extra class, also with non-homologated parts.
Hayden Paddon appears now in the entry list with Fabia.
Also ****matie's Bertelli with Fiesta RRC.
I could see on NORF website that my favourite finnish singer Paula Koivuniemi will perform on Saturday evening after pricegiving ceremony!!
:bounce:
I´m so happy, now we´ll stay on the show and then after that heading to Turku for the sunday morning ferry to Stockholm. :dozey:

Well, I like grandma´s and grandpa´s such as Eric Clapton, Tina Turner, Stevie Wonder, rather than today´s screaming youngsters. Even Jorma Kääriäinen would be nice at Paviljonki... ;)Quote:

Rally pass is €65 this year. Tickets - Neste Oil Rally FinlandQuote:

Detailed information about spectator points comes as spectators' guide is published. Past years it've been only available in print.
First Fiesta R5 in the entry list and that's Robert Barrable.Quote:

38 entries so far... Try to refresh or something...
Here is link again:
https://akk.autourheilu.fi/Public/Ki...id=3368&edit=0
Clik"osallistujat"
Some DS3 R3Ts now, Fisher, Campedelli, Chardonnet, Della Casa. Also Tidemand, Pärn and Tempestini in their R2s. Apart from Prokop, so far VW trio have entered with WRC. Entries close next Monday.
Vetomies event have still some room as well. Some spectacular drivers there already, like Sjölund, Rampanen, Kauppinen, Kuhanen, Bäck, Hapulahti, ... Vetomies entries will close tomorrow.
In the Vetomies, do we expect any old WRC cars?Quote:

I'm having doubts that the "historic WRC" event would succeed. The rules were also changed so that current FIN R 4WD cars are accepted as well, meaning newer cars such as Evo IX and Evo X too can do "NORF light edition".Quote:

Great video :) . lol :D - WRC Finland 2005-2012 - YouTube
Dmack Autotek's entry with Fiesta R5 is in, but crew line is empty. This could be the one for Brynildssen?
And Brynildssen it is with Maria Andersson.Quote:

Very nice video, a lot of places to which also I have been to. Memories :)Quote:

I would be highly surprised if Tommi would drive. Maybe it's marketing about his entrance to the Rally Hall of Fame. But then again he just celebrated his 49th birthday and Finnish drivers have a tradition to drive NORF when they're around 50...Quote:

Ten times Dmack Fiesta R5s without crews there (+Eyvind). Must be some kind of mistake.
Arska, remember there's still exactly four days left to enter.
Lukyanuk has entered Estonia, so maybe Finland too. Highly hope so.
52 entries altogether for Vetomies and Nelivetomies. Tero Salminen with his fast Volvo 240 in there, as well as flamboyant Veli-Matti Saarelainen in Punto S2000 and Seppo Kopra, renowed driver instructor, in Corolla WRC. I think that decent enough entry for this side event. If I get to see them once, it's cool, however Rally Finland is for WRC.
Having King Tommi compete is the only thing that could possibly make NORF even better than it already is.... Now if only we had McRae back!Quote:
