“OVER TWENTY TEAMS SET TO START THE HIGH DESERT TRAILS RALLY!”

Seventeen cars and six bikes are ready to take the challenge of the
High Desert Trails Rally in Ridgecrest, California on Saturday, April
17th. A full field of cars, trucks, FWD, RWD, AWD, and RallyMoto bikes
are competing.

Bill Holmes & Sean Gallagher who won overall last year will be
competing with a new engine and they will have their work cut out for
them as the 2006 USRC Champions Wolfgang Hoeck & Piers O'Hanlon showed
up early on the entry list. Expect this event to be a launchpad for
their 2010 championship battle. Other returning teams include
production entries Alex Rademacher & John Stewart (pictured) and John
Black & Brent Ellzey. Expect these guys to be trading stage times.
Last year's winning GT class Subaru Impreza driven by Kevin Welker &
Nolan Sambrano will again be out on the course, this year with some
new competition from Katianna Pihakari and national championship
winning co-driver John Dillon. Chuck Wilson, who won G5 last year has
switched to his new G2 Ford Escort with a new but very experienced
co-driver Jonathan Schiller. Look for Wilson to put down consistent
times all day.

In RallyMoto, Andrew Sutherland and Roger Eggers are both back this
year to defend their 2009 titles against 4 new riders: Chris Martin,
Les Martin, Ken Wahlster, and Raphael Bertolus.The High Desert Trails
kicks off the 2010 California Rally Series Moto Championship!

Over 50 volunteers will be out on the stages this year helping to make
this event run. The rally would like to thank those who have signed up
as volunteers, the South Orange Amateur Radio Association, Checkpoint
Racing, and Rally-Tire.com for their support. Without the support and
donations from these organizations, this rally would not run.

Spectators will see tons of action from the Palapa this year and are
encouraged to download the spectator guide from our website.
