One of the leading crews contesting the 2008 SA Rally Championship is Trent Brand and Jeremy Browne in a Subaru WRX STi.

Trent is a member of the Brand Family from the Coonawarra in the State’s South-East. The family has a long history in making superb wines and involvement in motorsport – in particular rallying.

After mechanical problems in 2007, Trent returns in 2008 with a new motor and engine management giving more power, improved brakes and suspension.

Matt Selley and co-driver Joana Fuller won the 2007 SA Rally Championship in their 2003 Subaru Impreza Sti and are contenders for the 2008 Championship.

They are proudly supported by Sam's Auto Electrical, Norwood Auto Services, SA Motorsport Tyres and Tyrepower St Agnes.

Matt and Joana were introduced to the sport by a friend in 2002. They started off competing in club rallysprints in a Datsun 260Z and progressed to Clubman and later to State Championship rallies.
