        Jul 17 , 2003 [Australia]
        Subaru will provide a variety of support vehicles for use at Telstra Rally Australia from 4-7 September.
        The vehicles will be used by event officials, in ensuring the smooth running of the rally, which is the 10th round of the FIA World Rally Championship.

        It means Subaru vehicles will be prominent both on and off the rally stages – Subaru World Rally Team and Subaru Rally Team Australia will both be competing in the event.

        Petter Solberg and Tommi Makinen will be driving Impreza WRC2003s for SWRT. The in-form team won the last round of the WRC, in Cyprus, with an amazing drive by Solberg.

        SRTA's Cody Crocker, who leads this year's Australian Rally Championship, will again be aiming to prove his credentials on a world stage. He managed an impressive second place in the Group N production class in Rally New Zealand earlier this year.

        Subaru has a long association with rallying in Australia and has won the last seven consecutive Australian Rally Championship Drivers titles, and†four of the last five Manufacturer's titles.
