“Otago Rally is my favourite event, a mainstay of the NZ championship, and I love the fast, smooth and open stages,” Paddon said.“The NZ championship is in fantastic health and I really look forward to supporting it and catching up with many friends.”

“For this year we will continue to do some updates on the chassis and engine, fine tuning the steering system and some development work to suspension and diffs. “The car is really coming along and it’s all info we can pass on to other teams to help the AP4 category move forward more quickly.”Paddon's Otago Rally entry is a huge boost for the event, which has already received over 70 intentions to enter from competitors. The Otago Rally is grateful for Major Events funding from Dunedin City Council, and is supported by the Otago Community Trust. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PScjE2GuZbw
