Rally at Easter
AN innovation for Fiji is the 450mile motor rally around the main island of Viti Levu at Easter. It was not so many years ago that the organisers of such an event would have been hard put to find 450 miles of motoring road any where in Fiji.
The main route is over the two main roads, Queen’s Road and King’s Road, with detours at Tailevu to Matavatacou, from King’s Road to Vunidawa, from King’s Road to Nadarivatu, and from Queen’s Road up the Sigatoka Valley.
Entries will be divided into three groups according to power and each car will carry a driver and a co driver.
The course is to be completed in a set time. Each vehicle will be allocated a certain number of points and penalties for early or late arrival at checking points will be
deducted. Average speeds are not to exceed 25, 24 and 23 miles per hour, according to the grading of vehicles.
