Rally crowns tough 800 mile North Michigan run
Alma Michigan hosted an 800 mile two 12 hour section national rally through the northern peninsula with 60 entries from six states. Dean Walker and Bill Dodd drove a Corvair finishing seventh among 31 finishers while navigating and repairs were required for a collapsing suspension and damaged exhaust. The event started in Alma and moved through Grayling and along Lake Michigan before returning, with speeds often in the 30s to 40s and some sections forcing second gear for miles. Jones, a dealer sponsored BMW, finished third with Goering and Ward winning. Leonard Co. sponsored the Detroit region of the Sports Car Club of America.
