Helpfulness
The kings of the rally championship come once a year to south Wales.Either based in Cardiff or Swansea.Most stages take place in the mountains of forest in the valleys, however the special sprint stage takes place in the Staduim, a sight of seeing some of the worlds fastest land cars going head to head inside a 75,000 capicity stadium is out of this world, definetly not to be missed.
Equipment: Usually a coat, because it will probably rain.

Maybe I will go next time as I kind of wish that I had this time...
