Rally Stars Gather for International Historic Motorsport Show

15 February 2004

The entry list for the Live Rally Stage at next weekend's first International Historic Motorsport Show (20-22 February) brings together an impressive array of star drivers and cars from the golden age of rallying. They will tackle eight runs over a specially-created one-mile stage in the grounds of Stoneleigh Park. The Live Rally Stage, organised by the Historic Rally Car Register, will run on Saturday 21 February and Sunday 22 February. The Motor Sports Association has kindly agreed that the Live Rally Stage can be run in reverse seeding order, so car 1 will run last.
