RALLY: Legendary Team Joins Defending Champions

With files from Suzuki Canada

RICHMOND HILL, ON – Suzuki Canada announced that it will once again campaign two P2-class Suzuki Swift+ rally cars in the 2005 Canadian Rally Championship.



The 2004 P2 Driver and Co-Driver Championship team of Bill Bacon and Peter Watt are back in their Suzuki Swift+ to defend their title. Placing fifth overall in the Rally of the Tall Pines, Bacon and Watt showed a number of the “bigger” cars the competitiveness of the Suzuki Swift+.



To further strengthen Suzuki Canada’s Rally Team, the second Suzuki Swift+ will be driven by the multi-time Open, North American and Canadian Championship team of rally legends Frank and Dan Sprongl from Georgetown, ON. With the Sprongl duo joining Bacon and Watt, the Suzuki Rally Team will be a force to be reckoned with in 2005.



The two Suzuki Swift+ rally cars have been recently refreshed by Four Star Motorsports in Georgetown and are ready for the 2005 rally season! Their first event will be the Rallye Perce Neige in Maniwaki, QC on February 2-4, 2005.
