“Driving different cars at different events isn’t an ideal way to tackle a championship that’s for sure, however, it’s allowed me to develop my driving in a different way, become more adaptable, learn different car set ups and meet a new bunch of great people who all share my passion to rally,” he added.Quinn’s 2018 NZRC events have been in a Ford Fiesta R5, Ford Fiesta Proto, Mitsubishi Evo 8 and a Peugeot 208 Proto. The opportunity to drive Hunt’s Impreza is one that Quinn and Kiwi co-driver, David Calder, are grateful for.
