RallyDay 2009

[Jenna]

latest news for anyone interested in all forms of rally from rallycross, rally, WRC to Rally-Raid....

Alister will be driving a Mitsubishi WRC05 and the latest Mitsubishi Lancer EvoX Group N rally car, developed and supported by MML Sports. John Easton, MML Sports Managing Director,
commented: "I am delighted that MML Sports is able to support this year's Rallyday by running two of the most evocative rally cars from recent years. This will be the first time that MML Sports has officially demonstrated its range and we are excited about having both cars at the event, as well as the full support infrastructure."

Spectators will also be able to see the McRae Enduro on the McRae Vision stand in the centre of the main paddock. This Rally Raid car is similar to the vehicle in which Alister successfully completed the gruelling Dakar Rally at the start of 2009. For Rally Raid and off-road enthusiasts, Rallyday introduces the all-new, dedicated Rally Raid Zone, which will showcase numerous cars and trucks from this exciting sport. The Rally Raid Zone will give visitors a chance to see vehicles such as the incredible Bowler Wildcat in action and an opportunity to experience white-knuckle rides on a special stage located behind the infamous Quarry Corner.

For newcomers to Rallyday, on-track action comes in the form of professional driving demonstrations, track sessions, circuit parades and the feature rally stage. There is also a separate spectator rally stage, using perimeter roads, plus a new sideways driving competition - "Strictly Sideways".

Off track, there is a host of displays where visitors can have a close look at some of the world's most iconic rally cars, which have made rallying history through the years. The paddock is packed full of static displays plus the main event stage, where rallying celebrities are interviewed. There are also numerous trade exhibitors, ranging from major car manufacturers to individual specialists offering a diverse array of rally merchandise.

That looks great Jenna, thanks

I'd love to see the Bowler Wildcat 'in the flesh'......

should be an excellent turn out of rally-raid cars for anyone into the sport, the old Bolwer wildcats and i guess Drew is taking a couple of the new Nemesis too. You should also get to see the McRae Enduro (and maybe the new buggy to!), I expect a Desert Warrior from Rally-Raid UK would be about aswell.... plus all the t5 chase trucks, not a bad

i did hear a rumor that there may be an appearance of a Pug (405)T16 and a 959 but its not confirmed...
