CROWDS gathered at Aberystwyth Bandstand on Friday evening for a special launch event for this weekend's Rali Ceredigion.
Fans had the chance to meet drivers and take a look at the cars before racing started in earnest on Saturday.
A special street stage will be held around Aberystwyth town centre on Saturday evening, with fans expected to gather at the town's castle.

This year special stage features a ‘donut’ for cars to circle and fans can again benefit from elevated viewing, food and beverage stalls and live big screen action.
Online tickets for the Aberystwyth Street stage are £6 per person or £10 on the day and include a park and ride shuttle bus service. Children 16 and under go free and do not need a ticket for entry.
