Profile:
In this, its fourth season,
the eAutomobilia.com Rally Team has shown
steady improvement as both crew and car
continue to develop. The team returns to
PFR having lead most of the event here last
year, before winding up fourth after a mechanical
problem late in the rally.
Before taking up performance rallying,
Ted Wilkinson was an accomplished
TSD rallyist, having previously won the
Historic Class in the Thunderbird Rally
several times over. This is Ted's third
year driving this very special rally car,
an ex‑Canadian National Championship
winning 1980 Toyota Corolla, previously
driven by 5‑time Canadian champion
Taisto Heinonen.
Bill Westhead has
been a performance rally co‑driver
since 2000 and his top-ten finish credits
include both the Big Horn and Rocky Mountain
National rallies in Alberta. His best finish
to date was 2nd overall in the
2000 Pacific Forest Rally. Bill also got
his start in TSD rallies, winning the 1998
WCRA Novice Championship for navigators.
