Only in Rally...


In looking for more Nissan/Rally competitors at recent events I came across this...

No, not the 1991 240SX of Martin Walter and Ferdinand Trauttmansdorff that finished 13th in a field of 36 National level competitors at the recent Rally of the Tall Pines, and looking spectacular I might add...

But the 1991 Lada Samara of Bryce Baker and Derek Vincent...

The Samara was called the Sputnik (Satellite) in Russia and thus this Canadian team's name: rallysputnik.com

Another item you don't see every day in Stage Rally is a competitive passing move...but with the low powered Lada being followed by a more powerful and AWD Subaru, I guess they should have known this would happen...
