The 2007 Printmatters Promenade Stages Rally offers excellent spectator access & parking and a superb view of all of the stages. To get there simply follow the rally arrows from Junction 1 of the M53 Motorway and enter the spectator car parks via Sandcliffe Road. Access from Liverpool is via the Wallasey Tunnel and follow the signs for New Brighton Promenade. For a map & further directions click on the 'Venue Info' button from the web menu on the left.
Spectator charges are a very reasonable £5.00 per car or £3.00 per person on foot, which includes a full 20 page glossy colour programme. Parking is adjacent to the stage with easy viewing of all stages and a running commentary at the most popular spectator areas. Added to the action out on track there is the chance to also tour the service area in between stage turnarounds.
i will defo be there as am not working woo hoo
Hmmm I might just go along to this as I have never been before but peeps say it is good.
i only been twice b4 a few years ago had a good day good fun
Went last year, got there early about 8 I think.
Deffo want to go this year, but I'll proabably be going on foot
if i go mate will give you a lift if you want
Cheers for the offer, but I'll prolly get the train as I'll be dragging the missus along for a nice romantic day at the rally
now that romantic lol you big softy
Im working till 12:30, So I'll be there about 2ish after having my dinner.
Hopefully will have my new camera by then.
I might use my old camera still tho as I wont be experienced with the new camera and I want to get some good pics.
STUPID IDIOTS....this event has been ruined for me.....ive been every single year for the past 7 years..except last year..cos they changed the dates...Last year the dates were changed due to weather problems and high tides...this year they just decided to keep those dates..basically..this pointless decision has lost them a regular customer..and not because i dont like the dates themselves...but because im back at university....pathetic...I do a motorsport course (as you know) and ive hardly seen any racin all year...plus this was one of my highlights of the year..really really not happy
what uni you go to? can you not stay up here that weekend?
well im up at preston....i forgot to mention...i go back to uni on the 10th...but the weekend before Were Racing at Anglesey
Didnt they change the dates so it didnt conflict with the golf OPEN in hoylake.
I'll see what I can do for ya for next year, A work collegue is part of the Wallasey Motoring Club that organises it, he's actually going to be doing the commentary at the rally.
is he the annoying dude who was on the bus last year?
yea waddi...it was originally swapped cos of the open...then swapped again due to high tides and things....i mean come on....regardless of the fact that that was a world event...were talkin bout motorsport vs golf.......if ya cud have a word it would be great....cos it really is the best thing the wirral has each year
God....that Picture makes me really jealous as well......Darrian T90....is John price gonna be back this year anyone know?? im guessin Mike Oates is in an Impreza
is he the annoying dude who was on the bus last year?
That would have been him,
"And this is Oates in his subara impreza, this is the 3rd time oates has competed here at the new brighton prom Rally" blah blah blah
that was just a random attempt at commentary, no facts just numbers,names and cars pulled from the air
ahh kk....ill let ya off then
"And this is Oates in his subara impreza, this is the 3rd time oates has competed here at the new brighton prom Rally" blah blah blah
thats exactly it, repeated every hour for every car for the whole day
ahh right
any1 goin 2 this 2moz an any idears what time it starts
