Testing...
 (United Kingdom)

To all,

With a new year of rallying fast approaching, who would be interested in some testing?

There is a new rally school/ 1 mile stage at the back of Bristol airport nowadays (by fountain forrestry) and I spoke to them almost a year ago about some testing, which they were quite happy about.

With the possibility of doing the BRC challenge next year, we would be looking to doing some testing. If I was to speak to the company again regarding the facilities, would there be any interest? I think we could make a really good day of it........

Definately interested if the price is right.

Even more interested if it is about a week or so before the Wyedean.

I assume this is gravel track?

Thanks Will

Yea it's gravel in the woods behind the airportoff Brockley Combe and run by ACF hospitality.

Last year when I spoke to them (just before they opened) the price was definately good and they were very welcoming to people using it, so i'll make the call.

Very useful having both forestry and tarmac/gravel testing facilities so near.Can you just turn up at Weston Nick, or do you have to pre-book?

I'd be interested to try the forest test site if it is not too costly - and do they allow vans?!

Steve, I do not think pre-booking is required - I've emailed them to find out !
