Currently leading the Bosch Australian Rally Championship, Smart is looking to continue his consistent trouble free run.
“I know this rally is fast, so with our ‘less-restricted’ Corolla we’ll have to keep an eye in the rear- view mirror for Mark Pedder,” Smart said.
“The key to this rally will be consistency and tyre choice. We tested a few tyres today and found the Kuhmo 800s worked really well, especially in the sunshine we had today. I reckon the Corolla will do 0-100 in 3.1 seconds now, especially with our Elf fuel,” Ryan laughed.
This weekend Smart Motorsport are joined by a new partner and fuel supplier with Elf Racing Fuel, joining other sponsors V-Sport Australia, Ferodo Brake Pads, Speedie Contractors and Yandina Automotive.
“We’ve got new Sabelt racing suits from our sponsor V-Sport Australia for this weekend, they feel and look awesome. It’s great to have a suit that fits me properly and looks professional coming into this round,” Ryan said.
“I guess there is a lot of hype coming into this round, and after talking to Simon Evans through the week, I’m just going to keep it real and drive my own event. There’s still a long way to the podium at Rally Victoria.”
The Scouts Rally SA starts on Saturday morning.
