“We’ve had a strong start to the season,” said Andrew Comrie Picard. “We’re going to be pushing hard to stay up front this weekend.”
Racing for the Rally America Title begins at Portland International Raceway before heading to Mount Hood in Oregon
As he heads into round four of the series, ACP tops the standings with a three-point lead over Rockstar Energy driver Tanner Foust and Subaru Rally Team USA driver Travis Pastrana, who are both tied for second place.
Rally car racing is considered the extreme sport of automobile racing. It is an all season motorsport where drivers and their co-drivers take modified road cars to the limit as they achieve high speeds over courses that cover hundreds of miles of gravel, dirt or snow-covered roads.
During the three day event, teams will take on over 100 miles of competitive stages on a course that is mixed with hard-packed forest conditions and wide-open farming roads. The region's hilly terrain means plenty of elevation changes throughout the contest.
Team ACP Rally uses K&N products. “I’ve used K&N since I began Rally racing more than a decade ago,” said Comrie-Picard. “We do the most extreme things we can do in a car and K&N is the perfect formula for our turbo charged motors. There is no compromise with K&N which products our engines from road debris.”
Racing begins Friday at the Portland International Raceway and then heads to the Mount Hood area for Saturday and Sunday stages.
