An all-female crew heads the latest entries for the Sol Rally Barbados later this year.
The pair of Shelly Taunt and co-driver Julie Murphy are coming to compete in the 25th anniversary running of the event in a Group N Subaru Impreza.
Taunt, who won the Driver of the Day award at the 2014 Goodwood Festival of Speed, is aiming to tick one of the boxes on her rallying list as she has won more than 20 titles since she started rallying in 1995 after winning a ‘Find a Lady Rally Driver’ competition, half of them with co-driver and near-neighbour Murphy.
While a number of those titles are for women, Taunt has also won the British F1400 championship, the BRC RallyMasters Production Cup twice and three class championships.
