A truly international field of 32 crews started out from two different locations for the 19th running of the International Winter Challenge. Competitors from several European countries were accompanied by two entries from Japan’s Tokyo University Historic Rally Team. Starting point one was the superb “Race Retro,” rightly billed as Europe’s premier historic Motor Show and based in the grounds of Stoneleigh Park, Coventry, England. The second starting point was over the English Channel in France, where the picturesque town of Troyes, in the Champagne region, hosted the opening leg for competitors both from the Continent and some UK crews as well.
