Neath Valley Stages 2012.


(Organised by the Three Counties Car Club) This year saw a particularly dusty rally, despite the recent wet weather, the day dawned dry and bright. The recent forestry works, and resulting road maintenance, had left a loose layer on top of the compacted hardcore base. In the areas of clear fell, the top surface dried quickly, producing a fine, all coating layer of pale dust.

Dai Llewellin and Phil Short won the Historic Stages in the 102 Braces Bread Ford Escort, they won by nearly a minute, ahead of Juha Kankkunen and Nicky Grist in the 101 Mk 2 Rallysport Escort.
