3 castles rally

Post by elkelk »

Hello, just signed up, nothing against the PCGB but the focus seems to be on modern Porsche ownership. As for the forum....well endless discussions about interior colour combinations on 997 variants leave me just a little cold.

One question, I am considering entering the 3 Castles Rally in 2008 and wondered if any DDK members have any experience or advice they could pass on?

Time to let the PCGB membership fizzle out i think.

details are on www.three-castles.co.uk

emphasis seems to be enjoyment, both of the scenery, a gentle intro to rallying, and of fellow competitors...

Hi, Welcome to DDK :)

I've heard nothing but good reviews of the three castles. If you do it keep the road books so I can copy the route for the DDK Welsh drive weekend I'm organising next year 8)

Welcome to DDK - I really hope you find the forum useful and of course fun! No talk of colour combos and cup holders here! (well, you may get a little discussion about the colour combo of mine and Cubists's twin sets!)

The three castles looks like a fun rally.

Quite a few DDKers compete on these events, in fact Michael Birch just won the regularity on the Tour Brittania in his RS. Quite fancy doing something like the tour myself , or maybe one of the european events. Unfortunatly young family, work etc will be getting in teh way for 2008 / 2009 :roll:

What car are you thinking of competing in?
James

1973 911 2.4S
1993 964 C2
2010 987 Spyder

1963 Honda C100 Supercub

Its not how fast you go, but how you go fast ;)
