WRC Coffs Coast 2011 - Nambucca 11/09/2011 / miscellaneous
I have never really been that interested in any type of 'car sport' but rally driving definitely intrigues me. High speed action on gravel and mud through dense forest is a good mix for some dangerous prangs, and the Coffs Coast rally has surely seen its fair share of this. With the Nambucca stage being held on Saturday 10th September within close vicinity of home (approximately 15km) I snagged up the opportunity and viewed the action for the day. The viewing point was located on the corner of Graces Road and Dyers Loop Road just out of Bowraville and showcased the cars taking a right sweep around a very fast bend before accelerating uphill into further bends.
Unfortunately we did not get too see any carnage, though there was a crash further down at the next spectator point.
