RALLYDAY 2016

-

Rallyday, Europe’s Premier Rally Car Show returns for a 16th year to Castle Combe Circuit, Wiltshire on Saturday September 24.

This epic event attracts star drivers, feature cars and tens of thousands of rally fans to the circuit for a day jam-packed with rally action.

We’re thrilled to have three-time world rally champion Juha Kankkunen as the show’s star guest for his first ever Rallyday visit. Juha leads the list of drivers in attendance from the 1986 Lombard RAC held in Bath 30 years ago. Joining him will be a host of names and cars from the era including Jimmy Mcrae, Nicky Grist, Louise Aitken-walker and many more.

From the modern scene, M-sport is well represente­d with Eric Camilli and Elfyn Evans both in attendance alongside British Rally Championsh­ip competitor­s Osain Pryce, Jamie Anderson and Neil Simpson as well as Rallyday-sponsored BTRDA Fiesta ST Trophy champion Cameron Davies.

Feature cars from the 1976 and 1986 Bath Lombard RAC rallies, as well as the Group B era of 30 years ago, will be prominent in both paddock displays and the lunchtime demo stage alongside some of their more modern counterpar­ts.

For the first time ever, the track will run as Clubmans stage throughout the day with over 100 rally cars signed up and ready to give it a go.

Off the track, Rallyday’s incredible club displays stretch out of the paddocks and along the viewing areas with the show’s exhibitor village featuring more traders than ever including a great World Rallycross Championsh­ip-themed display from our headline sponsors, the Cooper Tires company

Show tickets are available to buy in advance for £18 or on the day for £25. Under 17s are admitted free of charge and there’s also a free to access kids’ play zone.
