Classic stages in store for Red Kite

The classic special stages in Crychan, Cefn Llwydlo and Caio are in prime condition ahead of the Red Kite Stages on Sunday 8 September, round five of the West Wales Rally Spares R.A.C. Rally Championship.We drove the Stages on Tuesday evening and Crychan and Cefn Llwydlo have been totally regraded and are in the best condition we have seen for years, said Secretary of the Meeting John Morgan. Meanwhile, the 8.5-mile Caio stage has not been used since the Red Kite in January 2011.Heavy snow on the original January date forced the team at Amman and District Motor Club to postpone the 2013 event, which will now run over the same route on Sunday 8 September. Entries are now coming in well, from both R.A.C. contenders and crews in the concurrent modern event.The compact rally will again be based at the Castle Hotel in Llandovery and offers 45 miles of classic gravel stages for 450 in a route that includes 100 road miles. The first car is scheduled to leave Llandovery at 9am and return to the finish at around 3pm. Scrutineering and documentation will be held from 1pm to 6pm on Saturday.Regulations and entry forms are available at redkitestages.co.uk
