Title: SBBR Directions
Post by PAddy on 06/19/3 at 12:17:41

Ok guys, since i made the trek at 4am last year, I can't quite recall the directions to the stage, from T.O. And I can't seem to find one listed on the website (Problem??), so some directions would come much appreciated.

I've never spectated before, only worked, but i can't stay for long saturday, so i will be trying this for the first time. Where is spectator parking/when is car 00 heading out?

Thanks in advance,

Patrick

Hey PAddy, there are directions to the rally HQ on the supp regs, but the stage is 15km or so(cant remember exactly) south of Dorset on hwy 35(between Hwy 117 and 118 i think). It is called the sherbourne lake access road or something to that effect. I think it is just past the lezslie frost centre, but you will surely see the line of cars. The road is on the east side of Hwy 35. Parking should be just at the side of the road. Car 0 starts at 12:00 from dorset, so maybe around 1:00 things will get going. Have fun!

This is from the worker details email.

-The stage is on the Sherborne Lake Forest Access Road, which runs east off
Hwy. 35 2.5 km north of the Frost Centre. My recommendation for those
of you who are coming from the Toronto area is to go north on the 400 then
follow Hwy.11 to Bracebridge.

Just north of Bracebridge go east on Hwy. 118, also identified as
Vankoughnet Road. Travel 54 km east to Carnarvon at the junction of Hwy.
35. There are gas stations and convenience stores at this intersection,
where you may want to stock up for the day.

From Carnarvon go north on Hwy. 35 for 23.5 km to the Frost Centre, which
is a very obvious and clearly signed group of white MNR buildings on the
right (east) side of the road. Go 2.5 km further north on Hwy. 35 to the
stage.

That's a good question.

In the morning, I am at scrutineering, then I am doing a traffic control somewhere in the stage...killing bugs.
