Default Nicky Grist Stages - photos

Its been a while since i put a rally photo thread up, as this is the first one i've been to this year! Missed out on Sunseeker due to the damn man-flu so it was good to get back out there.

Left home at 5am and was parked up in Wales for just before 9am (took the cross-country roads and avoided the Severn Bridge toll), watched two stages and then headed back. Long way to go for a days rally spectating, but needs must - theres not a lot of events down this way and the Welsh stages are stunning in comparison to Sunseeker/Tempest.

So, some pics - yes, theres a few, but took over 800 and struggled to reduce it down to just these

First stage i watched was down in the Halfway forests, the roads are used by Wales Rally GB every year so know the good spots to go to away from the main spectator areas (which are typically open & safe areas, but with pretty poo viewing). Much prefer to get out into the twisty sections and up close to the cars. All of the photos are full-frame (no cropping) but have tweaked the contrast on some of them. Got pelted by stones by a few but thats all part of the fun

























































6R4 sounded lovely
