Default US Impreza fan traveling through UK in Sept.. rally school/event suggestions?

Hey guys, I'm from RS25.com and new to this forum. I'm backpacking through Europe this month and I will be in the Manchester area from 23/9 to 27/9, do you have any events or ideas in mind for a diehard GC fan?

So far I'm choosing between a rally school, and have found one in Saltburn that has an opening during the week: http://www.paintballguide.co.uk/rall...8&Activ=Rally#

Do you have any suggestions about the best rally school to go to?
This thread is old but had some reviews on schools: https://www.scoobynet.com/scoobynet-...ng-school.html

I have been researching and the only event I've seen is the Import Nation on the 23rd. If anyone knows of an event/car meet during this time period, I'd really appreciate it if you could let me know!

Much appreciated,
Andy

Sonic, thank you for the welcome to SN, I wish I was going to be there for the Prodrive meet, that would be awesome to attend.

myblackwrx: That rally company looks very successful! I am not sure if they do midweek trips, but I will contact them. Thank you for the link

As of right now, the only midweek opening I see for rally is in Northamptonshire , so I will be in the area! I'll be car less but taking trains. I am planning on going to Silverstone Rally unless I hear back from a place that is less expensive http://www.silverstonerally.co.uk/ra...ng-course.html

I just liked your group on Facebook and will join the club, know of anything going on during the week?

Just booked everything! I will be arriving in Manchester at 25/9 at 18:55. On Wednesday I am doing the Bill Gwynne half day Impreza rally package!

I am flying to Amsterdam on Friday night, so I will also be around to go to the car meet on Thursday night! I am really looking forward to seeing UK, it is my first time there.

PhilPrice rally school is by far the best bang for your buck rally day .... its educational as well as awesome fun, and its in mk2 escorts and GC8 imprezas ..... might be struggling to book on such short notice though.
