Where are you staying? If you don’t mind me asking.

If you want to have an idea about our part, look for videos from Rally Šumava/Historic Rally Vltava. Some stages are same, or partially same. Not much to say about the mickey mouse stage in Prague. It will be held in Chuchle hipodrom but they say they will build some new roads there (if I get it right).

German/Austrian part are partly stages of German 3-Städte Rallye (with special stages also in Austria in the last years) , so to look for videos from there.

Is that where Prague Rallysprint took place in 2013?
I remember I was there for vacation and I took the train (around 30mins) to a hippodrome. And they had 3-4 different mixed stages (tarmac and gravel) in it, simply by changing some barrels, pins, etc… it was not bad…

Yes, that place.

Are there any onboard footage from a rally or roadbook from any of the special stages?

Shakedown will start at 16.00 CET on Wednesday 25.10.?

Thanks

To be honest I am no expert on Rallye Šumava stages but here is at least something.

SS2 is an old classic spectator circuit in Klatovy reduced from 3 to 2 laps. It is quite boring because it's mainly flat our wide road but they keep it running as a tradition since 1960' or so.

SS3 shall be a somewhat different and longer variant of this stage which I absolutely like.

SS4 wasn't used in rallies for a long time if I am not mistaken. I tried to find some onboards of the past variants but I wasn't successful on youtube. Some existed on the old mediasport.cz website but those are long gone and I didn't save any. I do remember it used to be a great stage though...

SS5 shall be a way longer and reversed variant of this.
