(And no, we don’t mean the missus! Although you can if you want).
Do you drive an “old banger”? Or do you own a classic car? An MGA? A Triumph TR6? Maybe a 1970 Willys Jeep?
Do you like to raise money for your favourite charity?
Do you like touring on the continent?
If you put your hand up to any of those, then you will want to get involved with the Fireball Rally (www.fireballrally.uk).
We can put our hands up to most of those since we organise Fireball Rallies for those who want to help others and really enjoy themselves at the same time, every year.
For instance, this year we have the F1 Grand Prix Rally which you can enter, as either a banger rally with your old banger, or a classic car rally driving your (very expensive) classic. This takes place from May 24th to May 30th. You drive down to Dover and take the ferry to Calais. From there, it’s a circular tour going down to Monaco in time for the Monaco Grand Prix – and what enthusiast wouldn’t want to see that? You stay in Monaco for 24 hours, and then make the return trip via Italy, Austria, Liechtenstein, Germany, Luxembourg, and Belgium, and back to Calais. What a whirlwind tour is that?
Stay Overnight At Camping Sites
On the overnight stops you will stay at camping sites that we know and trust where we all meet up in the evening after a day of fun and seeing some incredible features such as the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the Millau Viaduct – which is the world’s tallest bridge – the Pont du Gard aqueduct which is the tallest aqueduct ever built by the Romans, and get to stop over in the Black Forest.
So, not only is it a lot of fun, but it is also a challenge to make certain that you get to where you are going. When you achieve all of this, your friends, family, and anyone else that you can persuade to donate to your chosen charity, will be contributing. Whether you choose to do it as a banger rally (vehicle worth less than £900) or classic car, is up to you.
But there is more fun too. You can dress up your vehicle in any way that you please. You can also dress yourself as well, perhaps as a pirate, fireman, hedgehog, or anything else that you can think of which is (a) silly and (b) funny. Take a look at our site and you will see what we mean.
Our Fireball Rallies are a huge lot of fun for all involved.
