What this
Sunday’s Armstrong Galloway Hills Rally lacks in quantity, it more than compensates
in quality. For the final forest thrash of the season, the top ten is a match
for any Scottish Championship round this year.
Last year’s
winner Mark McCulloch lines up against four times winner Jock Armstrong but
after his disappointment on the Colin McRae Stages, Dave Weston Jnr is back in
the Impreza while further down the list is the Cumbrian teenage rallying revelation,
Arron Newby. And if you want a bit more fun, just outside the top ten are the
MkII Ford Escorts of David ‘the Highland Hotshot’ Wilson and Yorkshire’s
Matthew Robinson.
