The Welsh are going to kill their rally tourism if they continue to muck it up as they have done over the last few years :x
But that's only my opinion of course :wink:

I couldn't agree more!!

It used to be so much better when you could arrive at a stage at stupid o'clock and woder thru the forest to find a good view point(out of dangers way of course).
When i started going it was Â£5 per car,the last time i went it was 'bowt Â£8 each person and there was only specified view points bowt 10 people deep!

In recent years they have increased the price too much and spoilt the spectacle!!

just my tupence worth

There was a small lorry and in front of that was a car transporter. lorry was pulling a trailer with a white mitibushi evo on it, silver tinted windows and the car transporter had 3 more plain white evos, all lookinh the same as the first but it was also carrying 2 vans.
