Fairfield Motorsport - Monteberg Rallysprint

Monteberg Rallysprint 2006

We work closely with the organizers of the Monteberg Rallysprint which is held around the second weekend of May each year, scruitineering anddocumentation are on Saturday and the competition on Sunday. We are able to offer special deals and our competitive experience to competitors and spectators alike to visit the Rallysprint.

Based at Dranouter, Near Ypres in the Flanders region of Belgium the event is centered around the Kemelberg Stages that are used on the European Championship  co-efficient Rally – The 24hours of Ieper, both events are organized by AC Targa Floria.

Competing and Spectating are in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere around the village of Dranouter which the Monterberg Rallysprint takes over for the weekend it is also home to many other festivals in Belgium and well accustomed to the crowds that come to watch the cars compete.

Scruitineering and signing on for the overseas crews takes place for this International event on the Saturday afternoon, whilst a home National event is going on this adding to the motorsport atmosphere and gives you a good taster of what is to come on the Sunday.  After the National event finishes on the Saturday you are usually permitted to run the course in a car at non competitive speed but not in a rally car or you will find yourself excluded before you start.

On the Sunday you have three runs of which your best run counts.
If you are looking for a good weekend away and not far to travel from the ferry port of Calais this is the event to enter if you are new to overseas events the Monteberg Rallysprint is good gateway and confidence booster to start you off ! and enter you into the Belgium bug to do more in this great Rallying country.
