Sofa + Worthington Cream Flow + Crisps + GFOS = :luxhello:

Happy Bunny.

My Sky box is already set :cool:

I had to miss it this year as I inadvertently booked our holiday the same week as the FOS :cry:

I was a guest of the Subaru World Rally Team :D

Excellent day out :thumb:

The SWRT who read and enjoy the posts of pslewis may wish to note that he has been banned - no more laughs for you boys!! ;)

Please pass him my condolences!

Those that have been, whats it like to go?

Always fancied it but a) miles away and b) quite expensive and not really sure what ticket to buy.

Would like to take my old man next year.

I live over 300 miles away but it's well worth the effort. It's like manna from heaven for petrol heads - the sounds & smells alone will make you drool, never mind the sight of the cars! What's more it's almost totally chav free :thumb:

It's grown to such an extent now that I don't think one day there is enough so I'd advise you to book a room nearby and go on all three days :D

Friday - get up close to the cars, Saturday - do the trade stands and rally stage, Sunday - watch the hill action from a grandstand seat :cool:

Thanks for the heads up...!!!

Good call :cool: :thumb:

Plussed, cheers !

Colin McRae in a WRC Scooby.

That's better than porn :D

That was excellent, I'm even more gutted now that I didn't go :cry: Roll on next year... :D

Defo worth a trip me thinks :thumb:, after seeing the footage on the old tv.

Couldn't have put it better myself:thumb: :thumb: It deffo suits him !!;)

Always fancied going to this event ,but distance ,time etc has put me off.

Now i want to go more than ever . Some really beautiful machinery on display and in action. Anybody who is anybody in motorsport is there.:notworthy

It really is a fantastic event, probably the best of the UK motorsport year.

You really do need three days to see it all though and its best to get grandstand seats as well.

If you are going to saty you need to book rooms as soon as they become available as they seel very very quickly.

Damn, damn I missed it! Does anyone know if it will be repeated?

Coverage was crap imo. Too much time spent chatting to people rather than showing all the different cars goin up the hill.

I watched it and when they were showing the rally bits I noticed an elderly chap looking a little wizened amongst the other people. It suddenly occurred to me that since PSL said he was there that is could have been him!

I could not see if he had a Zimmer frame in the shot , he was wearing a brown jacket.

Come on Pete-put me out of my misery, did I have a brief glimpse of the King of ScoobyNet as you say. Have I actually seen the great incomparable PSL?
