WALSTER SHINES ON RALLY RETURN ON CAMBRIAN

-

Former front-wheel-drive expert Tom Walster made a rallying return in a

Ford Escort Mk2 on the Carlisle Stages and loved the experience.

Walster was a frontrunne­r in both a Ford Fiesta ST and Renault Clio R3 before stopping rallying five years ago. He returned in the historic

Escort to finish second to Henri Grehan.

Walster said: “The car is new to me. I’ve never done rear-wheel drive before and I’ve not been in the woods for seven years. I bought two cars to sell on. I had a go in it and thought I’ve got to do a rally in this. I’d like to do more: it’s absolutely amazing.”
