Entries for August’s The Middle of Everywhere Gippsland Rally are officially open.
 
The fourth round of the 2023 Bosch Motorsport Australia Rally Championship (ARC) season, this year will be the second running of The Middle of Everywhere Gippsland Rally after a successful event last year.
 
Taking place in and around the forests of the Gippsland and Heyfield region in Victoria, the rally will be the first Endurance event for the year, meaning there will be no room for error.
 
Spread over two days, Australia’s best rally crews will tackle 182 competitive kilometres across 16 special stages, with eight to take place on each day of action and the EROAD Power Stage to wrap up the rally on the Sunday.
 
Saturday will be the larger day of the two, with just under 121 competitive kilometres being run, while Sunday will run the remaining 60 kilometres.

Joining the ARC for Saturday’s eight stages will be the Till’s US Pickups Motorsport Australia Victorian Rally Championship, which is holding the third round of its 2023 season.
 
Interested crews have until Friday 11 August to register for the event, with entries to be completed via the Motorsport Australia Member Portal. 
 
Gippsland Rally Clerk of Course Andrew Roseman was looking forward to welcoming the ARC back for another year. 
 
“The event is tracking along nicely and we’re really happy with how it’s progressing,” Roseman said.
 
“The roads are in excellent condition and we have some different stages for the ARC on the Sunday, which is exciting – especially with our new EROAD Power Stage.
 
“The interest in the ARC this year has been incredible as there have been healthy fields in every single event, so hopefully that rolls into a bigger event here in Victoria. 
 
“After what will be a special Accent Benchtops Rally Queensland, we look forward to seeing the best rally crews in Australia here in Gippsland.”
 
The 2023 edition of The Middle of Everywhere Gippsland Rally takes place in Gippsland and Heyfield on 25-27 August.
