I would recommend going to Colin's Crest if you haven't been to Sweden before, as there is no other place like it in the world on the WRC calendar and it has become a "must do" at least once kinda thing. But, keep this in mind:

4. A ladder or step stool might be nice, especially if you are short
5. Enjoy the crazy PA announcer guy, korv and sweet smoke in the forest
6. Don't plan on taking pictures. It's just too dark and smoky, and too many people lined along the jump.
I sadly won't be able to make it this year, but it sounds like it's shaping up to be be a nice edition with a ton of spectators attending.Ken & Alex in WRC? Awesome!http://www.monsterworldrallyteam.com

PG and Matthew have priority 2, because their class is WRC, but are not scoring Manufacturer´s points...Almost everything about World Rallying

Khalid Al Qassimi is also priority 1, while he normally is the third/reserve driver for Castrol Ford Abu Dhabi. Now he is entered for Team Abu Dhabi. Is he planning a whole season in 2011 and entering in the Manufacturer championship?
Petter Solberg also has priority 1. Did he had it already in 2010 , or is PSWRT entering the championship from round 1 , instead of starting in Mexico?R.I.P. all WRC heroes

That could only happen if he replace Latvala in some events...

Yes, that's just as likely as it is for an asteroid to drop from the sky directly to your head and killing you.

You will be surprised, but yes, they heard. And they didnt liked it (not all of them of course) and were fighting against it. Thats one of the reasons why this category was killed by FIA...
