Wyedean rally 11th feb
Hi All,
Just to let you know that on the 11th feb is probably the best rally event of the year.
May see you there.

Hard to say exactly buddy, cos the stages are all a bit - or a lot - different to last year.
Carpark 'J' is pretty much the mid-point between all 3 morning stages. All 3 are very close together, but so are the start times, so it'll be a scramble to see as much as poss.
St 3 is a big one, we'll be staggering around in the woods there, somewhere
Last year, the Chepstow stage was inside the racecourse, but this year it looks like its not (racecourse carpark is where you can see the cars at service).
Theres been a bit of snow up the forest today, and it was frozen this morning with plenty of black ice on't roads so take care ...
... and purely for the sake of gossip - there was a murder up there last night. About a mile from the St 1 start! A love-triangle stabbing, with the purp being caught this morning!

fair play they were the worst conditions I have ever driven in ! I lost count how many times I spun , I think I qualified for my helicopter licence the amount of spins we had lol
We ended up skidding into a bank and breaking an outer CV joint on stage 3

Mat - It was at the St3 hairpin. Hawkeye went into the escape road beautifully sideways / backwards! That'll teach those people not to stand close to the red tape 
Ian - You were driving this year? Please describe the car, I may have a video clip for you 
I hope it wasn't the red Disco that span on the straight just before the HP!

Nice one Phil, some good clips there.
Those people were abit lucky on that hairpin bend where the cars kept over running the corner, especially with the Opel.
