THE PARTING SHOT
Get it out the garage
Double BTRDA Gold Star champion Ricky Evans will return to the Nicky Grist Stages in July in the very same Peugeot 205 GTI that carried him to successive championship titles in 1994 and 1995.
The 66-year-old driver from Tamworth last drove the car on the event – which was then called the Quinton Stages Rally – back in 1995. Seeded at car number one, Ricky won both the BTRDA Gold Star category and Class A7 that day and finished 11th overall.
Having converted the 1.9-litre Peugeot to full Group A spec in the early 1990s, Ricky restored the Peugeot to its former glory for the 2021 Roger Albert Clark Rally and has competed on selected events ever since.
Good luck in Wales Ricky!
