I literally live 5miles from the Brechfa forest. Shame these stages aren’t used on events anymore. Was only 7 in 91, can’t help but feel I’ve missed out on the best days. Great coverage, this single event typifies why Colin was loved. Flamboyant, fast and sometimes a bit reckless. That smile in the end as well🥺. Brooks as well what a legend of British rallying. Rip
@@Ifox95 I’m really not sure tbh. Wales Rally Gb was last there in 07 or 08. I think the last national event was the Red Kite stages in 2010. Don’t think there’s been much there since if anything, whether the forestry commission objected for some reason i don’t know.
Thanks for the video, another rally we were out spectating on. The welsh international rally was always one of our favourite rallies to spectate on over the years, back in the day the British British rally championship was the best in the world with top foreign drivers contesting the championship regularly, but in a way it was sad to see with three drivers on the rally no longer with us. Russell Brooke's, Mark Lovell and Colin Mcrae.
On the maps, bigger better challenge. Great leveller I had a VR4 on the road about this time, fantastic car. My old co driver and navigator from my road rally days sat with Ramon Ferreyros on several Welsh rallies but not this one. Happy days.
Russell Brookes an extraordinary Driver 15 years after his first Scottish & int win...to be a winner again over a second generation of Rally drivers amazing talent👏👏🌹👤RIP..@paddy Sullivan Cork.

Why isn’t Brechfa Forest used anymore?

Thanks for sharing
David Llewellyn got some world - class moustache action going there. Everyone knows facial hair is worth an extra 6mph

Great driver, even though he is rather full of himself. Subaru legacy thrashed senseless by Mcrae as usual ✌️
Thanks, great memories. I was at singleton park for the second run, I was 15 at the time and nagged my dad into taking me lol 👍
Wow, I grew up playing in Singleton Park but never knew Colin and co had competed around there.
The Havoline Sierra Cosworth of Brookes has such a nice livery.
You are a Legend VHS..Thankyou.
VHS Rallies is the best rallying channel on UA-cam, I reckon. Great coverage of a great era. 👍
i remeber that well, i was with the stonehouse rally team as a young apprentice ;)
Superb coverage, thanks for uploading.
As always a great watch, thank you for uploading it
Strange seeing Russell Brooke's not in Andrew's colours. Great video
awesome video
thankyou.
This is amazing
Can see the majority of what was put into the Welsh stages in dirt rally 2.0 on the Hafren map
Play rally championship 2000 also
Great era!
Fair play to Mcrae, "we ripped a brake pipe off making the car virtually undrivable" but still had a go anyway!
That guy would continue until only the steering wheel was left. Gotta love Mcrae. Balls to the wall every time. 👍
Magic...💞cosworth is memory
I like the name ''WYN GRUFFUDD''
Gwyndaff Evans as well. Welsh names always have a good earthy sound to 'em. 🏴
At the end the reporter can i have your telephone number cheeky
