Rally Info:
For 2008 we have put together one of the finest routes ever planned for the Rally of the Lakes or indeed for any Irish rally ever. Saturday includes all the great classic stages of the Beara Peninsula such
as Cod's Head, Ardgroom and the Healy Pass, while on Sunday we visit such old favourites as Caragh Lake, Beallaghbeama and we have reintroduced Beallaghoisin, which has not been used for a number of years. As always both days rallying starts with Ireland's most famous stage, Moll's Gap. Centralised service on both days has been introduced with the service park in Castletownbere on Saturday and Killorglin on Sunday. |

Rally Info:
This will be the Jim Clark's fifth year in the beautiful town of Kelso. Set in rolling border country an hour south of Edinburgh and nestled on the confluence of the Tweed and Teviot rivers this ancient town with its Georgian cobbled square offers a great backdrop to the event.
The 2008 Jim Clark Rally will consist of 5 separate events each with its own appeal to a spectrum of competitors' ability and budget. The International, National and Landrover rallies get things underway on Friday evening with a ceremonial start in Kelso square, before getting down to real action on Saturday with over 100 miles of stages in both the Lammermuir Hills and Berwickshire lanes. The National Rally and Challenge Rally, which joins the action on Saturday morning finish back in Kelso Square that evening.
For leg two the International Rally is joined by the 'Reivers' Rally a 'National B' event. Traditionally the 'Sunday run' is compact and this year will be no exception despite retuning to the Lammermuirs for a favourite stage and offering Scottish Rally Championship contenders their longest event of the season. The Reivers Rally is a national B status event.
All of the events will be centrally serviced from the one time racetrack and airfield at Charterhall, where there is ample hard stand and easy access. All the overnight 'parc ferme' will also be based here.
Activities get underway a week ahead of the event with the Reivers Rally recce session taking place on Sunday 18th May, although most of the recce takes place on the two days before the rally itself. |
