This is fantastic. I have a feeling that we may get some television
coverage of this event. I am hanging out for a chance to see MG in
action (if not live then at least in moving pictures :-)
Release immediate April 22, 2002
Gwyndaf Evans and Chris Patterson head north this weekend to take part
in the Pirelli International Rally in Gateshead. This will be the first
time that the MG ZR EX258 has competed in the UK and also in gravel
specification.
The action will commence on April 26 at the Gateshead International
Stadium, onto the floodlit stage of Central Nursery and Watergate Park
before heading onto the testing stages of the Kielder Forest.
Commenting on MG ZR EX258's UK debut, Rob Oldaker, managing director, MG
Sport & Racing said: After our first two continental outings in the
JWRC, it is great to compete in the UK. Not only will the British fans
be able to see our MG ZR in action, but we will gain a terrific amount
of information for the Acropolis round which is next in the Junior World
Championship calendar. Gwyndaf, Chris and MG continue to learn from the
development programme and we are looking forward to further progress
this weekend.
