Rally Hokkaido 2008
I thought you might be interested to see some footage from Rally Hokkaido 2008. This is a run through the shakedown stage this morning.
There's not a lot of room to slide the car about ! Don't watch the embedded video here though. Double click the video and then click high quality....it's much better.

Here's two stages from Day 2. As always they look much better if you watch them dirrectly from YouTube in High Quality.
SS12 Sinotcaki 1. The control officials gave me a piece of paper with 30 seconds to go before the start, that said "Newsy News!!!" and then a lot of Japanese script and a red cross on the inside of a tulip about 1 km into the stage. They didn't understand when I asked them what the red cross meant!
SS16 Honbetsu 2. This stage has a bit of everything. It's fast, narrow and very rutted, with some tighter sections too. I'll never complain that the roads in Australia are rutted ever again after running of this stage.

I couldn't see any spectators (and only 1 or 2 officials). Were those stages typical? Some FAST bots of road in SS 16 and that grotty stuff reminded me of some of the tracks in the Watagans.

Those roads are pretty much the norm for that event. A lot of the stages don't have spectator points and have a limited number of roads accessing them, so you don't see many spectators in the stages apart from dedicated speccie stages like Rikubetsu.
There's tons of spectators with their families set up on the transport sections though....bizarre!
