The organisers of the Rally Show at Chatsworth have confirmed that they are planning to run a similar event in the autumn of 2008.
“This morning we are able to confirm that The Rally Show at Chatsworth attracted around 10,000 paying spectators, which is immensely encouraging for a brand new event,” said a spokesperson for the Show.
“Judging by comments from spectators, exhibitors and participants, the inaugural Rally Show at Chatsworth was deemed a success,” added a statement to the media from the organisers.
“Spectators came from as far a field as Ireland, Scotland and Wales, while the organisers of motorsport events in South Africa visited Chatsworth to discuss the timing and results package used to manage the five competitive events.”
For the record, Steve Perez emerged as the winner of the ‘headline' event, while second place went to his best buddy and fiercest rival, Paul Bird, whose driving style put the emphasis more on showmanship than speed.
“This format of event has been a great introduction to rallying for everyone,” said Perez.
“Good atmosphere, safe viewing and easy access to legendary drivers and wonderful cars.”
