Best video yet Richard, I particularly loved the power slide out of the hairpin- great car control mate!

[@Richard_Weaver]

Thanks Steve! I’m glad you liked it, felt good on the inside too. Feel I am starting to get the hang of the car now. This rally was a great step forward in understating the car. Appreciate your comment as always. ☺️

[@gerbrett6206]

Get yourself over to Ireland for a spin, Wexford stages in early September, 2 days closed roads 10 minutes off the boat in Rosslare, always a very well run event

[@Richard_Weaver]

Really been pondering that one too.

[@MSSRallyTeam]

Always enjoy the honesty. It's nice to see the comparisons with East Riding which is a fantastic event. It looks like events over here are slowly becoming more and more slick, spectator friendly and social like you see on the continent. It's easy to forget especially with COVID how most closed road events in the UK haven't ran that many times, hopefully keep improving!

[@Richard_Weaver]

Totally agree. Covid really knocked the development of closed roads back. But they are on the rise and improving all the time

[@ShiftingWithFerre]

I got some extra shots from you! 🔥

[@Richard_Weaver]

Awesome. Would love to see them

[@victorreynaert1553]

It was awsome to see you drive in real life in Monteberg!!!

[@Richard_Weaver]

Thank you Victor, really pleased you enjoyed the rally 😁

[@careyroberts3924]

Great video Rich. Glad you had a good time :-) Here's to the next one! All the best...

[@Richard_Weaver]

Cheers Carey. It was a real pleasure to be on those wonderful stages.

[@rydehedgefund169]

well done Matey. Looks like you smoked it. Keep going ..its a stretch , but you won't regret it, those memories last forever😉

[@Richard_Weaver]

That's the plan! Thanks Matt

[@Gary_R]

You could see your confidence growing after every stage. Totally agree (speaking as a spectator) Rallying on the continent is so much better.

[@Richard_Weaver]

Cheers mate. It took a while to get confident on the new (improved) set up.

[@ap31988]

Nice content... Come to Portugal, we have lots of nice rallys 🇵🇹🙌

[@Richard_Weaver]

Maybe one day! My father and uncle did the Firestone rally in Spain in the 1970’s.

[@russellsmith5278]

Love following this!

[@Richard_Weaver]

Thanks Russell. 😁

[@andrewthompson7518]

Brilliant Richard, great video, well done.

[@Richard_Weaver]

Glad you enjoyed it👍🏻

[@GibsonMsport]

Well done dude! The smile is back 😊

[@Richard_Weaver]

Yes. 🙌🏻 it was a great rally 😄 (Layland being seeded car behind us was a bit of a bummer, but you know, can’t have everything. 🤣🤣)

[@DattsMotorsport]

as always, a great watch and i too feel your pain with the budgets. great to hear that you are keeping the car

[@Richard_Weaver]

Thanks mate. Appreciated

[@podd372]

Nice one., that looked like great fun. Budget is everything. Picking 3or 4 events you really want to do is better then doing 8 or nine in a series, 6 of which are of no real interest.

[@Richard_Weaver]

Very true! I completely agree. A car like this needs to be used for the right rallies.

[@michaelstainthorpe1569]

Well done Richard great video 👌

[@Richard_Weaver]

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks Michael.

[@paul106xsi]

Rallye du Bethune is another one with a stunning town centre/ parc ferme. They make a big event of it on the continent, and the local people understand the revenue a rally brings. Whereas we're still running single venues at the back of nowhere closed off to the public. It's slowly changing for the better.

[@Richard_Weaver]

Do they allow paddle shift on Bethune, Paul? I think it has to be as homologated.

[@stanthepan]

hellor Richard, I saw your blue fiesta and instantly knew it was you, i have some videos of you (always the same corner). I was wondering if i can send them to you? Congrats on finishing the rally, I hope you enjoyed it in Belgium.

[@Richard_Weaver]

That’s very cool mate. Can you contact me on WhatsApp? [phone]

[@philglover7544]

Sounds like it came together Richard and she did not seem that much slower from the footage. The town square assembly point did also remind me of the East Riding Stages. Pleased you are keeping her and look forward to your next outing. Phil

[@Richard_Weaver]

Thanks Phil.

[@fatboymotorsport]

Well done Rich, great to see you got your mojo for the R5 back,

[@Richard_Weaver]

You and me both! Glad to have got away with it too. Big ditches out there 😮

[@SubieZo]

Awesome videos, please could tell me from where did you buy the wide body kit and rear spoiler ?, thank you !

[@Richard_Weaver]

Hello. It’s M-sport, Cumbria.

[@SubieZo]

@@Richard_Weaver Awesome , thank you !

[@samjones8565]

What are the costs like compared to the uk?

[@Richard_Weaver]

Entries are about €600 all in. So a bit cheaper. Which helps with the cross channel bit.

[@scoobyfreak]

East Belgium will be a very expensive event. As you are forced to buy tyres and gasoline beforehand from the RACB. Very pretty rally tho.

[@Richard_Weaver]

I’ll give it a miss then. Perhaps Tour of Flanders

[@Thejones66]

How do entry fees compare to the uk and Belgium ?

[@scoobyfreak]

@@Richard_Weaver omloop van Vlaanderen is the same as its a brc event as well. Only difference is its not so deep in Belgium for you. Best rallys for the money are vas/asaf rallys to be honest. Like Wervik that is soon or staden.

[@filoulam6616]

Would be nice to have onboard footage!
