Just to let anyone know that might be intereseted, on 29 Oct 2005 the Begonia Rally (last round of the Vic Rally Championship) will be run in the surrounding forests of Ballarat. There is a field tipped of 60 or so, and looks like there will be the best rally cars/drivers in the state there. At this stage the starion will be there in full flight..... For any more info pm me and i'll post what i can

Lucky they didn't keep the video going, that was right before he looped it and ended up pointing in wrong direction...... all in a days fun. Was a good day, saw some very sideways action, rooster tails of dust, it's all good

It's tomorrow!

I'm going out to grab a copy of the Ballarat Courier soon, which has all the spectator information. I'll post up if any of you Melbournites are interested in coming, some of the points are up near daylesford, which is only about an hours drive, if that..

Just realised there's a spectator guide here too (so the first link is pretty useless :( ):

Quite a dark and dreary day, so it was hard to get some good pics, but here's a few mitsu's (Rally, if you want some full size pics and a video, pm me)

It's still going, so i might head back out for the last night stage tonight
