Default Colin McRae Weekender Event

There has now been announced the second Colin McRae Weekender Event, myself, Ian and Glenn attended the first event and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Details are in the link below, it's well worth doing as the drive around North Wales is something not to be missed with literally hundreds of other Impreza's.

So with this in mind I will start a provisional list:

1. Cannon Fodder
2.
3.
4.
5.

It's probably the best car orientated weekend I have been on.

The drive round the Evo Triangle, Snowdonia and Ynys Mon is brilliant, and if they get the Orme closed for us again it would be an excellent coup.

Not to be missed.

I have booked the Friday to Monday off from work, given the distance I think it would be a good idea to depart on the Friday afternoon and take a leisurely drive up there and get ourselves pre-booked into a local hotel / Premier Inn etc for the Friday and Saturday evenings.

If there's hotels involved then I'm sure Alisa will come along as well.

Try keeping me and Chris away from this one,looking forward to this, any details ect would be appreciated so we can pre book the hotel, I would imagine the local hotels might get very busy so if you snooze you lose.

Book along the *** between Wrexham and Llandudno and you will be fine. I'll probably stay at my daughters on the Friday and meet you there..

Noted above, cheers Trooper.

Looks like a bit of camping for me and Jo on the Saturday night at the site.

I know Big D and Matt (who loves a big pink inflatable) are fans of a night under the canvas and wondered if anyone else is interested? The option for discounted pitches was offered last time, there is a pub etc on site and it saves having to get taxi's about the place if your hotel is a bit remote.
