Rally - RSAC Statement

The Royal Scottish Automobile Club have issued a Statement ahead of their one day event due to take place on Saturday 24th July. This will be a NON SPECTATOR event. However, that is still a month away and the hope is that restrictions may yet be eased. If not, then we will all have to abide by the rules - no matter how badly tempted we may be!! 

See Statement below:

 

Covid 19

 

The current restrictions and variances in infections rates across the country have affected our planning with respect to spectator attendance at the 2021 event.

 

We have therefore taken the reluctant decision to have the event this year as a 'non-spectator' rally.

 

We would ask therefore that spectators stay well clear of the forests over the rally weekend and not to make travel arrangements into the area.

 

Any spectator activity in the stages will affect the running of the event.

 

We will monitor this decision regularly in discussion with colleagues at Forest and Land Scotland and Dumfries and Galloway Council.

 

If the situation improves we will advise spectators via our Facebook and Twitter feeds.

 

Regardless of any spectator availability over rally weekend, the service park will be off limits to everyone except competitors, registered service and support personnel and authorised rally officials and marshals.
