Willans is New ProRally Contingency Sponsor
8 September 1999
ENGLEWOOD, Colorado Willans Safety Harnesses is the latest supplier of fine racing products to become a contingency sponsor of the Michelin SCCA ProRally Championship. Through US distributors Zephyr Enterprises, Willans is making awards available in an innovative fashion that emphasizes helping teams coming up through ProRally's learning ground, ClubRally. The intent is to help new teams and those on the way up within the sport of performance rallying. Credits of $75, $50 and $25 will be awarded to the top three finishers overall in ClubRally events run in conjunction with a ProRally. However, the awards will be available only to competitors possessing a ClubRally license. No dual license holders will be eligible. In addition, cars must carry ClubRally numbers (200 and higher) in order to be eligible. Willans also will award a $50 credit to one competitor in every ProRally. In a novel twist, though, it will not go to the winner. Instead, it will go to the last competitor to drop out of the event. The program commences with the Prescott Forest ProRally, which will be held in Prescott, Arizona on Oct. 1-2. More information regarding Willans Safety Harnesses is available from Zephyr Enterprises; 1880 Embarcadero Rd.; Palo Alto, Calif. 94303; (650) 496-1933.
