The first round of the Western Canada Rally Championship, the Cochrane Image Auto Body Winter Rally based out of Cochrane, Alberta is coming up!

This event is going to be one of the ones to definitely be at this year in the regional series. Low amounts of snowfall and warm weather will mean a mostly gravel rally with icy patches, guaranteed to be a high pucker factor event! On top of that, drivers from all over Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan will be competing in some serious equipment, teams like:
Max Riddle (winner of the 2011 WCRC, overall novice champion both regionally and in Canada nationally, open class 2005 STi)

Hardy Schmidtke (three time WCRC champion, competing in a new to him Evo 8.5)

Graham Bruce (3rd place overall in the 2011 WCRC, a beautifully prepped 2007 STi from the US)
J.C Bourgeois (a 2006 STi, immaculate prep work!)

Johnny Summers (a JDM imported STi with a USDM drivetrain swap, beautiful build)

All of these competitors have what it takes to be on the podium, with Max Riddle having a target squarely on his back after having won the championship last year.

If you want to get in on the action, a great way is to volunteer! There are many placements that need to be filled, from manning chicanes to running start and finish controls. For more information, you can contact myself ([email protected]) or [email protected]
