About this episode

The episode discusses the achievements of Taylor Gill and Daniel Brkic at Rally Sweden and explores the history of rallying surfaces in Australia.

On this episode of Special Stage, we discuss the impressive feats of Taylor Gill and Daniel Brkic at Rally Sweden, where they finished fourth in the WRC2 category. Does this result give them a better chance to lock in more WRC rallies? And what are the odds of an Aussie entry later in the year? We also shift gears to talk about tarmac rallying – specifically the Mt Buller Sprint – and dive into the history of rallying’s two distinct surfaces in Australia. Last, but not least… we unpack the latest feature on the RallySport Magazine website. The 1991 Australian Rally Championship was highly controversial, and we explain what subscribers can expect online.
