Subaru Vs The Oregon Trail
One can see why Subaru Rally Team USA, starring ace drivers David Higgins and Craig Drew, is such a massive draw. The duo recently took home one of many awards – first place at the Oregon Trail Rally, round 4 of 2011′s Rally America Championship.
Oregon Trail is Higgins’ second consecutive victory of the season. Only two weeks ago, he took home the gold for Team Subaru at the Olympus Rally in Washington State. Higgins now holds the most points towards an overall Championship for the team.
Subaru’s Canadian and other USA teams did not fare so well. Both were taken out of earlier runs of this event due to rough weather and crashes. All team members were uninjured after these separate incidents.
“The Oregon Trail Rally began Friday at the Portland International Raceway before moving to the scenic farmlands for days two and three. Oregon Trail began as a dry and dusty rally, but was consumed by heavy rains and thunderstorms during the middle of day two. The inclement weather forced event organizers to cancel the last two stages of day two and shorten some of day three’s stages.”
