Rally Bulgaria

[Elgin Man]

Hello,

I was looking to travel over from Scotland for this rally and also include it in a summer holiday.
Does anyone have recommendations about going to this event?
Is it well run? etc etc

Thanks Daniel

I have been there in the last 2 editions for the ERC (2008, 2009) and will be there again this year.

Extremely fast SSs' with really bad quality tarmac and sometimes a lot of gravel on it!
I have a funny feeling that it will be very spectacular event for a tarmac one!!!

Also Dimitar Iliev with Fabia S2000 should start.

If Cuoq comes, Carbonaro will come too

Eyvind Brynildsen will participate in a Rene Georges- Skoda Fabia S2000. To get experience with the rally.

After Bulgaria he will decide if he will continue with RG or not.

+ Krum Donchev 207 S2000

It will be round of the bulgarian championship as well. But we have only 2 S2000 cars. If that's what you are interested in.

Anyone going to rally Bulgaria?

[Mirek]

I thought that Rally Bulgaria wasn't counted for Bulgarian Championship. Something changed?

[atsiotras79]

As usual I 'll be there.

I heard a rumour a few months ago about Kozlekov doing the rally with 207 S2000 from Balbosca. Is this still on?

I wonder if Popov gets something "special" for this event...

Any good watching points at "Peshtera"? Heard a lot about this ss! Especially the downhill section...

It also suprises me that on 2nd day that really bad road from last year is used for Sestrimo stage! Was there any work done?

[Ramore]

Our federation decided a week ago that it will count for the Bulgarian Championship as well.

I haven't heard anything about Kozlekov at all. But my info is based only on Bulgarian rally websites. I think Jasen Popov will drive his own evo 9, but with a new co-driver, his son.
