The Rally Season Begins

[MrJan]

Very excited to have attented my first event in 2007 last weekend. Nothing special but it signals the beginning of a busy few months for me with events coming up including the Wyedean, the Sunseeker and a few more in the space of a few months. It also ends a dry period for me as I haven't seen a rally car in action since August or September time, in fact in many ways my season begins in late January and ends by about May, with the odd event cropping up.

So what event for you signals the start of the season and how long does it last?

for me its always Galway International and season runs right through the Irish tarmac and national champs + a couple of hillclimbs and the forestry championship and ends with killarney historic rally so from 2nd month ill the last month of the year
