Our visit to Dunedin a little while back "just happened" to coincide with the Rally Otago, which is the first round in the New Zealand Rally Championship. They ran two special stages in the city itself, and the final stage was run around the outside of a horse racing track. While the venue itself was a bit lame, it gave a great view of all the cars without having to hike off into the forests to watch them run. Plenty of modern cars were entered- Subaru STI's, Mistubishi Evo 9's, etc., but the classics were even more fun to watch. A Mk.4 Ford Escort 1800 RS- fully sideways- is Andrew's idea of what rallying is all about.
