BREAM rally driver Craig Drew left for the U.S. this week with a superb chance of winning the American Rally Championship co-driving for David Higgins.

Ahead lies the final round of the championship in which the team only needs a second place to clinch overall victory.

Competing recently in the STPR Rally Higgins and Drew in the Team Subaru USA Impreza enjoyed their third win on the trot. It gives them a 10 point lead so far over nearest rival Antoine L'Estage in a works Mitsubishi Evo 10.

Higgins and Drew now race against L'Estage on his home track for the final event.
