Monster World Rally Team Rally America Livery Released
Posted: January 26, 2010 3:09 PM
The Monster World Rally Team released pictures of Ken Block's 2010 Ford Fiesta livery to make its debut at the Sno*Drift Rally, January 29-30th!
Earlier this year, Ken Block, co-founder of DC Shoes, came on board the Monster World Rally Team to campaign a Ford Fiesta in in the Rally America Championship and a Ford Focus in the World Rally Championship. Until today, many speculated what the car would look like and now fans will get to see a preview of what is to come at the first round of the Rally America Series.
The Sno*Drift Rally - held in the middle of winter in northeastern lower Michigan - takes place where snowmobiles and Elk probably outnumber cars. As in past years the rally is headquartered in Atlanta, Michigan but it also passes through the towns of Lewiston and Hillman.
Winter conditions in Michigan are hard to predict, but some combination of fresh snow and glazed ice can always be expected. Current rules restrict rally cars from using studded ice tires which makes finding traction extremely difficult for the drivers. If there has been good snowfall in the days leading up to the rally expect to see large snowbanks lining the roads. These snowbanks can be a help and a hazard for drivers as they try to stay on the road. Dress for warmth and don't forget to bring your snowmobile!
