Its not like there is anyone responding from the media team anyway! Asked a couple of questions over the weekend via the usual channels and was ignored.
That aside the scenery looked stunning in the late summer sunshine and the roads appeared a proper challenge. Nice to see Matt Wilson hooning the Puma around the town stage as well.
I really don't understand having BRC stage end updates on Facebook only; most successful series are on YouTube......
Almost forgot it was a round of TER, I think Osian Pryce had to be reminded at the end too

I don't know how much it costs to be part of the TER, but you do get a nice little video out of them, at least!Quote:

The Ulster is a classic event and Rali Ceredigion is certainly shaping up to be a classic.
Here’s the thing, these rallies had really good entries but the @BRCrally component has numbered 6 & 7 entries respectively !
Something is going very wrong here and needs urgent attention.

Forgive my ignorance but why were R5+ cars with bigger restrictors created at all ? Maybe just to be faster for slower drivers to enjoy ?
Good question. How many other countries have them - or are we on our own, yet again. Far too much self interest in UK rallying, and too many drivers wanting to win on favourable terms beating more talented drivers in lower powered, less expensive cars.Quote:

When R5 cars were first introduced nobody in the UK ran them as old WRC cars were cheaper and quicker. Those who wanted to run the newer R5 cars, when they became available second hand, needed to fit the bigger restrictors to be competitive. If you were to restrict entries on UK events to cars complying with their FIA homologation you'd decimate the entries because very few cars in the UK run to their homologated specification.Quote:
