This saturday see's the return to the forests of my teams GroupA Escort Cosworth after a long lay off due to foot and mouth.
The woodpecker stages rally is one of the best national rallies held in the UK. The entry list is full of WRC and GroupA machinery.
It has a full entry of 180 cars. First on the road are the upto 1400cc class cars then all hell breaks loose with the open class WRC, GroupA and home brew specials.
I will post more details re spectator info when i get it.

....and is run by Sixty and Worcestershire Motorclub Ltd without whom no one would be able to go out playing this weekend and grease monkey Felstead wouldnt be able to get his hands dirty
See ya there Jon
edited to say that the website is only poor cos our motorclub,as most, find it difficult for people to give up their time and energy to promote things......
It is a tribute to 60&worcs MC that this event has been nominated as the best BTRDA event in the past and has won the award twice....
The team of guys who set the stages up consist of 6 people and give up their time for the week before to go out into the forests and tape off paths,put arrows up etc...for no recompense but their love of the sport....
If u see a marshall,official,medic,set up crew person etc etc when ur watching this year go up and say thanks to them for giving up their time otherwise u wouldnt have had ur days speccying...
Rich A - ex stage setup crew/equipment officer/course car navigator ....

maybe my comment didnt come accross well, i was tired.
what i meant was the website doesnt reflect how good this event is, probably the best run national rally in the UK.

What sort of time does it finish? I'm tied up first thing but should be able to head down about 11am which will put me in Ludlow around 12.15.
Only 60 miles down to Ludlow from here.
