CROWTHER MAKES RALLY DEBUT IN LUPO
Max Crowther tackled his first-ever rally on the Malton Forest Rally when he fielded a VW Lupo with experienced Ford Escort Mk1 driver and friend Josh Carr as co-driver.
Crowther, 28, works as a race engineer in the Porsche Carrera Cup for Redline Racing but finally got to contest his debut rally, which went well until the Lupo was forced out with a broken driveshaft on the uphill hairpin in Gale Rigg in SS4.
Carr said: “It was a good drive from Max on his first rally up until then. It was my first time on the wrong side of the car in the woods. Hopefully it won’t be too long until our next go.”
