I spoke to J4mie just before. Apparently someone called 999 and a firetruck went out on stage and got stuck in a ditch so the final stage was cancelled :mark:Quote:

Nice to hear the old drivers on rally radio :)
Daniel - you have a PM
Went to see just the last stage, Craigvinean but only saw the 1st 30 cars due to some pillock spectator phoning an ambulance, 2 Fire engines and a Firebrigade accident truck after Jimmys crash. One of the firebrigades got stuck in a ditch and the stage was eventually cancelled, I was a bit pissed at the newby speccy who made that call.
Still, at least I got to see the legends..
And my bro came 2nd in class.. :)
Impressive drive by Jarkko Nikara. 11th overall, 1st in Fiesta ST by 50 secs in his first GB rally (remember no recce, only organisers notes).
Also nice to see, that many of the legends were doing good times taking into account their age
Hi Guys
Just got back from Mcrae stages and found out that Craigvinean was cancelled. My nose was bothering me to find out what happened and this is where i found it !! We chose to go to Errochty purely because i thought it gave us the best chance to see the big names incase some of them retired early as did Colin himself 2 years ago.
Stayed at Errochty for every single car, i feel sorry for you guys who chose Craigvinean , you must be gutted , i know i would have been .
all the best
