Question

Seeing as how monumentaly fecked up the Rally of Great Britain has become (thankyou Dave Richards!!) I have decided to go to the race of champions instead. Only problem is that my budget is rather smaller than a very small thing that has been shrunk in a small making machine, then had the corners chopped of to make it a bit smaller. Has anyone been before? I have tried looking at their website to get ticket prices but can't find any, I have managed to find a hotel and hire car for £210 per person for a week, but don't want to turn up and find it cost £100 to get in and you needed to book your tickets last year. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Cord

Rallycol the dates are Nov29,30 and Dec 1st.

Cheers Ian, am either staying in Puerto rico or Playa D'ingles. How busy is Gran canaria at that time of year? £25 is a damn sight better than £75 for Rally of Wales. Not really bothered where we stay, was just going to get a hire car to drive to the race. Can't wait to see Valentino kick some ***!!!!
