Great Orme and hopefully Llandudno service Thursday; probably Dyfnant Friday; Builth service and second run through Sweet Lamb Saturday for me - can't do Sunday but should have plenty of full memory cards by then anyway....
Barry - is £20 for a double usage stage really silly money? Compared to the price of your fuel I'd have thought it was a bargain.

Great Orme will be scenic and atmospheric and is run twice, but Clocaenog will be more spectacular and you'll get closer to the action. Great Orme is also very exposed if the weather is wet and/or windy!

I would go to the forests if it was me, as the viewing will be better, especially if the weather is bad!

This year I've only managed 3 rallies. THe first was the Wyedean which, IIRC, was a £10 day pass for a car and enabled me to see 4 stages. The second was the Somerset Stages, I only went for the morning but saw 2 stages without having to pay anything. THe third was on Epynt, a whole day of rallying (think it was 6 stages) for £10 a car. Compare each of those to £20 per person for two stages and I think it's a bit over the top. I expect to pay more for top level rallying but you can take a car full to the Wyedean and watch a national event through 4 stages for half the price of a GB ticket.
And yes the fuel to get there will be expensive, but that's all the more reason to stay at home and moan about them trying to charge 20 quid. That way I'm not only saving £20 but also £70 or so on fuel :You're so beige, you probably think this signature is about someone else.

[quote="barryfullalove"]I believe so. As I can only do the Sunday it means no National event and a number of retirements. And then compare it to a national rally or something like the RAC and, to me, it seems overpriced.

I dont know how you can compare BTRDA event and club rally on Epynt to Messers Loeb, Ogier, Latvala, Hirvonen etc.
