2025 British & Irish Championships

[Steve Boyd]

So I'm planning to park in a non-access road and go for a walk in. Last year's North West stages had all sorts of pleas for folk to only use the awful, cramped paid areas - this one seems more relaxed, hence my surprise.

That's what I used to do on the Isle of Man and never had a problem - but that was over 40 years ago!

Give it a go - hope you find some good specs.

not relying on thrice run stages like NW/Three Shires.

Running a loop of stages three times is often done with success in Ireland but the stages need to be on the right roads. Not those narrow enough to get blocked and preferably roads that can be easily by-passed if you do lose the stage. You also need to have all of your contingency plans worked out in advance for losing any stage at any time & act on those plans quickly if there's an issue.

Aye, that's how I remember rallying being in my youth... and still is in several places. Just surprised to see it in the UK in 2025! Will be fun do some some map hopping again - unlike 30 years ago, now with the added advantage of onboard videos to do my own recce...

The weather forecast looks poor for Sunday, particularly the afternoon with heavy rain and strong winds. A shame for all involved and watching. I hope it doesn't impact the running of the event with more accidents.
