Warren Lee and David Lethlean have taken out round three of the Victorian Rally Championship, the Ada River Rally.
Driving their Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX, they took victory by over three minutes after the nine special stages, defeating the Subaru WRXs of Ben Hayes and Ivan Regester.
Grant Walker's Ford Escort RS1800 was the first two-wheel drive car home in fourth place, missing a podium place by just four seconds.
Leading retirements included Franco Liucci (Lancer) with a cracked brake disc, Matt Lee (Subaru) who went off the road, and Paul Eccles (Subaru) with a broken differential.
In the Victorian Club Rally Series event running alongside the VRC, Colin Sichlau drove his Lancer Evo IV to a 1m23s victory over Aiden Peart's Datsun 260Z.
