Im a wrc virgin! Ive just ordered 2 "day pass 2" tickets for the friday.Can anyone tell me exactly what ive just bought? How much info do they supply with the tickets? And does anyone know where car park H is?
All advice offered is greatly received.Obviously i want to see as much as i can.Cant wait.

You have bought tickets for the Rheola stages 4 & 6, and the super special in Cardiff stage 7. Car park "H" at Rheola is located for the Walters Arena.......
Walters Arena is a man made part of the stage, including jumps and water splash. The cars can be seen for about a minute. My advice for this area is to get there as early as possible and get a place up the front as you can't see that much if you are further back.
The car park is located on the A4109 near Glyn-Neath.
As for the super special in Cardiff, don't know i have never done it.
As for any information sent out with your tickets...... well i have got mine and there is no info' whats so ever.

Cheers scoff.Trust me to pick the busiest stage.Ill dig my map book out

JUST A QUICK ANSWER TOO THE QUESTION ABOUT THE SUPUR SPECIAL IF UR NOT A MARSHALL THEN THERE R COACHES SET TOO TAKE SPECTATORS TOO THE STAGE IT TAKES ABOUT 5/10 MINS TOO GET THERE THEN A5 MIN WALK ON TO THE ARENA .

Don't want to sound as a smartass but I read that the programmes with all the info on roads ans stages don't get sent out till the end of October cos they have to add the driver's entry list!

I was only answering the question asked.... "How much info do they supply with the tickets?"......
Obviously there would be info' in the programmes.....
But we won't see them for a while.

Thanks guys.Someone on here mentioned www.rallygb.co.uk and im now blessed with everything i could wish to know.Top site for info.

Thanks mate,

Glad to be of service !! ;-)

I'll probably get told off now ...

I'm no fan of Walter's Arena. Far to artificial.

First, it's too narrow and jumps are too small for these powerful cars. So you see then only going 1-st 'n 2-nd gear. Even the Cardiff Superspecial is less artificial and there at least you can see the difference of power etc between the cars.
Secondly, you're far too far off the action. Better stay home and watch telly.

I advise to stand at the stretch just before the Arena. The cars come out of there and then go on full blast again. At least you get that real rally feel of a freak virtually driving over your town with a car louder than thunder and then covering you with mud on the exit... ahhh, THAT's why we go to the rally !

Walter's Arena wasn't exactly my highlight of last year either. We went along as it was new, but I would agree with kwispel, it is a bit artificial. However, as an introduction to rallying and a way of encouraging people to go who haven't been before then it is probably a worth while experience.

I was a bit surprised to find a huge hospitality facility in the middle of a 'forest' stage to say the least. The funniest part was the crowd reaction when the announcer said something like 'and a big hello to everyone in the Walter's hospitality area'... :)

Mike - yours is a great website - full of good info. Nothing wrong with that IMHO. I've got loads of photos from last year if you want some more.

Cheers

Walters arena,

the high lite was the drunken guys on top of the hill, launching rockets into the sky,hoping they would fall into the crowd.

However we did have trouble getting in even when we had event passes, but i will miss this one-if, even when it is difficult to see whats going on from the back.

rhondda and margam are on the a4107!

look on www.streetmap.com or any other mapping companies for directions!
