McRae Returns with Subaru

 

  2-Oct-2003

At least one member of the McRae family will be at the wheel of a Subaru on this November’s Rally of Great Britain. Colin and Alister’s father Jim has agreed to drive John Lloyd’s Group A Impreza 555.


The deal came about after McRae - a five times British Champion - drove the car at a test in Wales recently.

"I think John must have seen the smile on my face after driving the Group A car at Sweet Lamb. He’d rather concentrate on the Mark 1 Escort for the Safari and he asked me if I’d like to do the RAC. It’s a bit like Alen and Salonen in Finland - do it before it’s too late!" McRae said. He will be 60 when the rally starts.

The Subaru will run in Jardine Lloyd Thompson colours.
