    My first rally so I'm told was in Errochty on the Scottish Rally 1983 when I was two weeks old

    First proper WRC event was Acropolis 2003 with Pino and Odykas
    If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off!

    Can't remember first one I spectated, but the first one I went to I was entered in with my trust Saab 96 V4, Wild West Rally, May 1984 out of Olympia Washington on what was the same stages as Olympus WRC would use in '85-'88.

    First WRC was also not spectating but entered---same Saab 96---well no spectating until SS19 when we spit up a bunch of teeth on the crownwheel and parked it---then we got to watch a hard battle between Kankunnen and Alen in the last WRC GroupB event in history and it was a real fight for seconds.

    First WRC spectating was Monte Carlo 1993 for the debut of the Escort Cosworth, then a month later Sweden WRC.

    Rally GB 2003 - just old enough to understand WRC and following in my father's footsteps by supporting Petter since 1999 I was thrilled to see him win the WDC in my rally debut!

    Wasn't a "proper" rally but for me it was the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb in 2002...

    My first was a round of the BRC in 1990. Might have been in Kielder but not too sure. I was a dot.

    First WRC was 1994 RAC Rally at Harewood.
    First WRC I remember was 1995 RAC Rally at Clumber Park.

    The first rally I went to was apparently Rally Oz in 1990 (I was just over 1yo at the time). The first I remember is Rally Oz in 1993, in particular the 555 Subaru Liberty/Legacy's running down Riverside Dr (Langley Park) at night. Since then i've only missed 1 Rally Oz (2 including 2009) and have been officialling & competing in local events for the past 4 years.

    First. The Pirelli Rally special stage in Gateshead. The last the Jim Clark rally in the borders.

    Those remain the only two rallies I have been to
