TRS Brands Hatch Rally 30/01/2011
Looks like this is definately happening now, so I thought I'd give it a thread! Oh, and apologies if this doesn't belong here, but the Tempest was posted in this section, so I thought I'd put this in the same area of the forum.
Anyway, without further ado... Sunday 30th January 2011 will be the first running of the TRS Brands Hatch Rally. Its going to be an all tarmac rally using the Indy circuit and the surrounding access roads. The official site with more details can be found by clicking here: http://brandshatchstages.co.uk/ At the moment they have a good mix of cars lined up and more cars then slots, so there should be a full field of 80 cars. Current entry list can be found by clicking here: http://chelmsfordmc.co.uk/Entry/TRSBHS11/EntryList.php Oh, and the best bit of all; its free to spectators! 1. Steve (tbtstt) 2. 3. |

Looks to be a handful of us going from Surrey as well, so perhaps a meet at Clacketts and cruise round the M25 together if anyone fancies it?

Have sent organisers email to see if they want us to attend as a club and set aside an area for a stand etc.....

Its the first time the event has been at Brands in 20 years - so no idea where we'll be able to watch from, how easy it is to move between the stages (walking round the back of the circuit etc might be necessary to get from one to the other) - if we're even told the information of where will be running when. Just basing my opinions on the experiences i've had at similarly sized club rallies (at Goodwood etc) - don't want to sell this to anyone coming as a 'big' event. There won't be much to see other than the rallying itself - but then it is free! If you want a bigger rallying event, come to Sunseeker two weeks later! |

I think Steve_PPP has hit the nail on the head. As I understand it this event is running with limited marshalls and I daresay there will be very few of the circuit facilities open - hence why its free.
The entry list looks excellent though. Scoobs, Darians, 6R4 and an Aston Martin as well. |

i shall be going for sure,

It was just a thought to help them aswell as us i.e parked closer etc..... I doubt they will get back and if they do they will probably say no due to lack of liability insurance etc..... |

Response from events organisers :
Scott We have very little room for Displays in the main part of Brands, but you are willing to bring cars/display and put them on the South Bank where the Spectators will be. Gary Nicholls |

Competitor guide has just appeared on the internet here:
http://brandshatchstages.co.uk/sites..._Bulletin1.pdf Scroll down to page 4 - its not a brilliant map, but at least it gives a rough idea as to where the service area and the like is going to be. |

Sorry for the double post. But full stage maps are now up:

Now all we need is some rough stage times and we can work out where is best to watch and when! |
#19
|

|

I'm working on that - trying to find out if we can spectate on the loose section in the woods as well!

Some of the high speed sections on the circuit will be entertaining (drifting through Druids?) but rallyings all about the loose stuff! |

Just started a morning meet list on Surrey, so I thought I would do the same here!

i took some photos, but it'll be tomorrow evening before i sort through them.
good day out, was chuffing freezing but at least it stayed dry. the scoobs did look slow all day no real benefits of 4wd on the tarmac and the mk2 escorts were so much quicker. the aston sounded cool as well |
