Dean Price and Matthew James of Price Rallysport have clawed their way to fifth outright in the recent round of the ACT Rally Series.

Price and James, competeing in  their 1600cc Proton Satria, never looked back as they tackled the fast and demanding gravel roads of Canberra.

“We have had a really great day today with no problems at all. It’s a fine way to start our championship for 2008,”  Price said.

They also finished first ACT Clubman and first  in class P2.

The third round was conducted as part of the 2008 Rally of Canberra. For the 40 plus crews that entered, points were only rewarded for Saturday’s proceedings.

Price Rallysport are concentrating on the ACT Rally Series this year, and have the Clubman section in their sights.

“We had to get a good result here at the Rally of Canberra. It was crucial that we finished this event with a handful of points,” explained  co-driver Matthew James.

Fellow team-mate and sibling, Ryan Price, with co-driver Russell Taylor, also drove their 1600cc Proton Satria to 18th outright and a commendable first in the Novice class.

The team now have a two and half month wait for the fourth round of the series, which will again be held in the forests of Canberra.

Price Rallysport would like to thank the following sponsors for their ongoing support: Australasian Glass Machinery, Caltex on Fernleigh, Burson Autoparts, Redline Autotech/ Repco Service Centre Wagga Wagga, Novus Windscreens, Wagga Natural Insulation, The Shanty Ice-Creamery and Ben Ruggles Motorsport.
