Ricky,
I've done a dall at BGRS. If you are an SIDC Member, Neil Micklethwaite is organsining another day out there.
In fact, even if you aren't a member, the saving you would make by joining the SIDC for £25 would payback the £25 several times over!
I had a top day. Driving on gravel is totally different. Our instructor Pat was a great laugh.
The Mark II Escorts looked greated fun as well, even though have about half the power of the Scooby - hand braking around the hair pins

I have done Silverstone Rally School (before they moved outside the circuit area), Phil Price and Bill Gwynne.
The Silverstone one wasnt that great, but they have changed it a lot since i was there, so cant really comment on it now !
Phil Price was excellent fun rear wheel drivers (MK2 escorts) well organised and the driver round the stage in the Cossie was a interesting then the passenger ride was an education
Bill Gwynne ! was well !! the best one i have done so far !! Instructor was great ! layout was just about right, food was excellent etc etc i may have to pop up and watch next time, i didnt get chance to take many pics of out lot !!!

Hi Ricky
We have 6 people attending the 'Impreza Experience' at Bill Gwynne Rally School on 13th October.
We can accomodate one more.
This is the fourth group I have put through from the SIDC / Scoobynet.
I have a reserve list of 9 people waiting for the next attendance ( these 9 could not make the 13th October ).
E Mail me if you want any further details.

Bill Gwynne excellent a must.......
Silverstone is better than it was before but only uses pug 106 rallyes
Oulton Park was really good fun 220bhp RWD Escort Cossies
I have done them all.
Bill Gwynne was the best.
