Wales Rally GB photo thread (yes that means a lot of pics!)
 

Howdy all, got back from Wales Rally GB late last night and thought i'd put (just a few) pics up so you can all see what you missed (i know a few of you lot were hoping to get there), and hopefully make you all want to go next year as well :drive: :D

Managed to get to the following stages:
Fri - SS2/SS5 (Sweetlamb), SS7/SS8 (Walters Arena)
Sat - SS10/SS13 (Halfway)
Sun - SS16/SS18 (Rheola) and SA1 Service Park.

Saw Hirvonen roll in Sweetlamb after hitting the bank after a watersplash, and saw Chris Atkinson's huge accident in Walters - it was very dark but could see the beam of light from the lightpod flashing up,down,up,down etc as he rolled through the trees. Found out later that they rolled six times after hitting the bank at 160kph, lucky chaps to walk away from that one.....

Anyway, photo time :yeah:
