Make Smoking History Forest Rally
Past Event
With ample opportunities for spectators to enjoy the action out in the forests as well as the Service Park where crews can be seen frantically maintaining their cars.
A Rally differs from other forms of motorsport in that the cars do not compete on a 'circuit', instead they compete on closed road sections that they have only driven over twice in order to make their 'pace notes', a short-hand system of symbols that enables the Co-Driver to describe to the Driver what hides around the next corner or over than blind crest. Many argue that Rally drivers are the most skilled of all motorsport competitors.
There is a wide variety of cars competing including Classics like Ford Escorts and Datsun 1600's to more modern turbocharged Mitsubishi Evos, Subaru WRXs and even a number of International spec "R5" cars.
