The original Stig enters the McRae Rally Challenge – May 16th / 17th

The latest rally star to sign-up for the McRae Rally Challenge on May 16th / 17th sponsored by Beatsons Building Supplies is Swedish legend and former World Rally Champion Stig Blomqvist. He will be doing the event in the original Group B Audi Quattro Sport in which long time rival Hannu Mikkola scored numerous outright rally wins in 1982. That means we will have BOTH Stig and Hannu here for this unique rally event – Stig competing in a Quattro Sport and Hannu playing in another one!

The Audi is owned by Steve Perez and the multiple British Rally Champion Perez will be bringing two cars to the event, the Audi for Blomqvist, and an ex-works Ford Focus WRC that he will drive himself. Like Blomqvist, the Chesterfield based driver has huge experience of rallying from the forests of the UK to the vast plains of central African Safari Rallies – so Knockhill will hold no fears!
