June Rally news!

The warmer weather has finally come and rally action is heating up along with it with all kinds of events and activities for the rally enthusiast this summer!

On Sunday 6 teams gathered for a Test and Tune event organized by the Bluenose Autosport Club. With a 2.77 kilometre stage run in both directions teams were provided the chance to bring the cars out of hibernation, shake out the cobwebs and try out new equipment, settings and techniques before next months Ledwidge Lookoff Rally!

Photos by Harold Merklinger have been posted here and here’s a taste of one of the stages:

Coming up next weekend, June 12th is the annual BAC Bluenose Navigational Rally. Starting and ending in Windsor, Nova Scotia, this is a fun event for any road-going vehicle and teams of all skill levels from first timers to experienced timing veterans!

In other news, local competitor Mal Swann and co-driver Martin Cadieux head back once again to Quebec this weekend for Rally Saguenay! Rumor also has it that several local teams will be competing at this year’s Rallye Baie des Chaleurs in July! Good luck, guys!
