Worked fine for me, all downloaded and printed off. Is your Acrobat reader up to date?
Also think I asked this last year but looking to get to the stage with the bumpy bit that leads up to a sharp right. Seen it on a ferw of Luke's videos but I've never managed to get there. What stage is it and whereabouts?
Do you mean the tarmac section with speed ramps, in Serridge Carpark M
Nah, this one:

Not actually as sharp a corner as I thought but it seems to be fairly eventful.
I was thinking of looking for that spot as well. Im aiming to get to the double right hander above where it says "beechenhurst inclosure" as it could be that and if it isnt it still looks like a fast approach to the corners :D
If you look at the second running of Serridge, its diffrent to the morning running.Quote:

That 'bump' is actually run the other way this year so not as good as 2008.
What a brilliant days rallying, though I was so lucky to get there in one piece! Was overtaken by a transit carrying some building supplys and something flew off the back of it and I swerved a bit too hard towards the middle and ended up sliding and wobbling my way into the outside lane. Brown pants and lots of swearing followed!
Once we got there I have to say it was one of the best days rallying ive had in beautiful sunny weather. The marshalls were extreamly helpful and a good laugh while I got talking to a fair few different people over the day. We started off at the double right handers near car park D and saw some very committed driving with Tom Cave being very impressive in the Evo 10. Then in the afternoon I joined ranks with loads (And I mean loads!) of photographers at the up hill left hander were both Mick Jones and Joe Price both stalled and we got showered in gravel by the white Opel Ascona!
I think it was after a red C2 had passed us that either the end of a steering arm or a track control arm was found in the middle of the road on SS6, does anyone know anything more about this?
Had a good days rallying yesterday and, for the first time in ages, actually managed to get to stages as planned and at the right time.
I also watched at the double right handers in Serridge, down at the second one on the inside of the corner. Quite a good little spot and managed a half decent shot of Tom Cave mid-spin. After that we buggered off to Mailscot and watched on a really long right hander quite close to the start of the stage. Was quite a good spot and the best car through was probably one of the 1400s, car 229. Little silver Pug that was more sideways than most of the RWD stuff and really on it. Couldn't watch there for long though and we left once Tom Cave came through so we could get to see the main field through Sallowvallets. Didn't quite go smoothly as we struggled to park and ended up with a gentle jog to the stage to watch at a long right hander that opened up. Nothing spectacular but nice enough.
Sadly I broke my camera (threw the bag and seems to have screwed it) so only got a few photos from the first stage. I'll upload them at some point, plus a video of Mr Burton.
Oh and isn't modern technology great, using my phone and the brilliant tynecomp website I was able to find out who was where at any point of the day, f'rinstance able to see that Burton was 20 seconds up going into the last stage.

Because I was stood behind a tree it meant that I never really knew how the car was going to be setup when it came into my viewfinder, was a bit of a shock to see Tom Cave at this angle.

I was tempted to give that sodding Castrol arrow a good kicking, this wasn't the only pic it ruined
