Really enjoyed last year, unfortunately it's a week earlier this year and clashes with the Cambrian Rally.

There are "only" 110 entries this year, compared to around 150 the last couple of years. Still nearly 40 cars in each group and hopefully it's just a blip, maybe due to clashes with other things.
If any photographers are going, would appreciate some shots of my silver Subaru wagon, #67 in group 2. |

Yes it's a week earlier than previous years meaning that for me it clashes with the Cambrian Rally. |

Indeed it has! However, it is number 38, 37 is a VW Golf driven by Miss Tiziana Mutschler. Does sound interesting though.

It seems that Dave Richards (yes, that Dave Richards) has entered too, number 49 Fraser Nash Le Mans replica.
My prediction for winner is Gareth Williams' Lotus 26R, number 97. |

What a brilliant day! Never done the Pom before but fancied it as something different and really enjoyed it. If anyone has any images of me out in my red Micra, car 44 (or my husband in a black MG ZR car 53) please feel free to drop me a PM.
boggissimo, hope you're ok after your DNF. I have some images but not so sure you'll want them |

I've uploaded my onboard to YouTube now. Nothing particularly hairy although I did enjoy taking passing three cars in four corners! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-N-A...ature=youtu.be

That’s a very sad looking Scooby there, but glad you’re OK. Will it live to race again? There’s a lot of important bits right at the front of Imprezas.....

It was a brilliant event; I'd wanted to do it for a while but had put it off (have done the Goodwood Stages the week before normally and wouldn't have planned the two events in two weekends, or sometimes they've clashed). Very pleased to have done it; not sure how many cars will have tackled Wales Rally GB twice and then managed 40 mins on the Silverstone GP too but what a day! A huge amount learnt to apply for the future...
Thanks for looking for photos of us. I have some of your Subaru being recovered (and a friend has some just after it happened) as I came back to the pits and found your sorry looking sight. Hope you feel back to full fitness quickly! |

I've got it home now, not sure what parts at the front have survived but it still rolls and everything from the cabin backwards appears fine at first glance. Will probably get another one and swap any good bits over, I can't think of another vehicle that can do so much for as little money - it was also our family car for long journeys, given that our other car is a Nissan Leaf so is a pain to go long distances in. |

Made a change to see a Chevron B8 win, well done Alex Ames, Simon Diffey was 2nd in the Escort rally car & PBE was 3rd in F-N Owlet.

I am over the moon to find out todayI was 12th! Was not expecting that so very happy given the number of entries and my first attempt at the event. Missed Goodwood Stages (driving) to do the Pom so pleased to have an enjoyable day, backed up with a good result. Planning to be back next year...!
