Johnny Gemmell/Carolyn Swan Giniel de Villiers / Greg Godrich NEW TOYOTA YARIS SEEKS MAIDEN WIN ON TOYOTA CAPE DEALER RALLY

The South African Rally Championship moves to the Western Cape for the first time this year for the Toyota Cape Dealer Rally, the second of the two rounds of the eight-event championship sponsored by Toyota South Africa Motors. It will also mark the sixth national championship outing of the all-new Toyota Yaris S2000, Toyota Motorsport South Africa’s latest weapon in the quest for an 11th national rally championship. The two-door four-wheel drive Yaris, built and developed by Glyn Hall and his team at Toyota Motorsport’s Barbecue Downs workshop within earshot of the Kyalami grand prix circuit, has made an immediate impact on the rally special stages, improving with every outing as the team works hard on Leeroy Poulter/Elvene Coetzee its development. Four consecutive podiums in five events and a best result to Friday September 13 and finish back at Imperial Toyota around date of second in the Toyota Gauteng Dealer Rally in round 15.00 on Saturday. There will be five special stages on each day three – with Johnny Gemmell and Carolyn Swan (Castrol Team covering a total of some 175-kilometres of timed flat-out racing. Toyota Yaris)– have been encouraging, but Hall wants more. Rally headquarters and the event’s single service park, which “Johnny and Carolyn are third in the championship, but 36 will be used twice on Friday and three times on Saturday, will be points behind current leaders Cronje and Houghton in the car at Brackenfell High School. in which they won the 2012 championship. However they’re only 11 points behind Jan Habig and Robert Paisley. We have to push for our first win and to achieve this on an event sponsored by Toyota would be more than appropriate,” said Hall. All three of Toyota Motorsport’s entries are strong contenders and each has been on the podium in the new car. Leeroy Poulter and Elvéne Coetzee, fifth in the championship in the second Castrol Team Toyota Auris and second in round two, missed out on what would have been a well-deserved second place in the recent Ford Dealer Rally after being penalised a minute for an unintentional jump start. Dakar Rally winner Giniel de Villiers and Greg Godrich are fourth in the championship in the Imperial Toyota Yaris after a Johanny Gemmell/Carolyn Swan consistent first season together in the top class that has seen them finish in the top six on three occasions with a best result Toyota Motorsport South Africa of third in round four.

The cars will be easier to drive, rather than faster, and more predictable. Results of testing have been encouraging. We have three good cars.” The two-day 780-kilometre Toyota Cape Dealer Rally will start from Imperial Toyota CapeGate in Brackenfell at 11.00 on
