EUROSPORT MANHATTAN RALLYING AIMS FOR TOP FINISH AT STPR

NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- The next stop for Eurosport Manhattan Rallying will be the STPR Pro Rally taking place June 2nd. STPR is the 5th round of the SCCA Performance Rally Championship and the first U.S. national event to be contested by Eurosport Manhattan Rallying this year. A quick look at the current entry list (www.stpr.org) will reveal that this event looks to be the most competitive rally of the year.

Driving for Eurosport Manhattan Rallying will be lead driver and team manager Sakis Hadjiminas. Sakis is running a very limited schedule this year in order to manage the development of the Eurosport Junior Team. Co-driving duties will be handled by Luis Figueiredo, who regularly rides with the Junior team. They will be competing in an Open class Subaru Impreza Turbo. The car is just off a recent test at the Sand Hills Club Rally, where it experienced a few bugs. With the testing difficulties sorted out, Sakis is looking for a top finish this weekend. "The car is running very strong and should be very competitive on the Pennsylvania roads," explained Sakis. "The competition may be the toughest ever and with the level of competitors getting better at each event, a top overall position will not be easy." STPR is a favorite event for Sakis. He enjoys the fast, yet very technical roads that make up the stages.

Eurosport Manhattan Rallying would like to mention their new sponsors for the 2001 rally season. Corona Extra has agreed to sponsor the team for selected events. You can visit them on their corporate site, www.corona.com. Additional sponsors include Per Annum, Inc.
