POPULARITY
Oregon Trail Rally threw plenty of curveballs. The headline was both Subaru factory cars retiring within a mile of one another and opening the door for its 12-rally winning streak to be broken. But it was about more than Subaru's unexpected disaster. An ARA cameo might become something more after Ricardo Cordero got to taste the winner's champagne – albeit at the expense of a potential first win for Sam Albert's Ferrari-powered Subaru. And then there's the story of how Sean Edwards went to extreme lengths to keep his Volvo in the race. Brenten Kelly, David Evans and Alasdair Lindsay are joined by Edwards in this week's SPIN, The Rally Pod to talk everything Oregon Trail.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Mercedes and Andy Lilienthal are back, two of our favorite guests and they give use preview of the Summer Alcan 5000 Rally they'll be running durning late August/September. Andy Lilienthal (Driver) is a die-hard gearhead. He's written about cars professionally since 1999 and has worked in the automotive aftermarket for 16 years, mostly at Warn Industries, the leader in vehicle recovery winches. Andy is an advanced off-road driver, teaches vehicle recovery classes, and writes about outdoor, off-road, and automotive topics for outlets like TREAD Magazine, Petersen's 4Wheel & Off-Road, Gear Junkie, The Truth About Cars, and more. He's also appeared in the New York Times, APM Marketplace, and other publications. In addition, Andy piloted the 5,120-mile 2020 winter Alcan 5000 Rally in the couple's 1991 right-hand-drive diesel Pajero 4x4, has competed in Pacific Northwest time-speed-distance rallies as well as autocross races, and even did the Gambler 500. When not competing or writing, Andy works on his 4x4s and daily driver subcompact. When not wrenching, he and his wife, Mercedes, can be found exploring off-road trails across the world. Mercedes Lilienthal (navigator) is the Editor-At-Large of TREAD Magazine and contributor to The New York Times, Car and Driver, Forbes Wheels, Autoblog, and several other automotive outlets, Mercedes creates award-winning content involving vehicular adventure travel, the automotive industry, and women within it. In addition to auto journalism, Mercedes offers PR/marketing services to a variety of automotive-related clients. Aside from her work, she's competed in several rallies, like the 2018 and 2021 Rebelle Rally. In '21, Mercedes partnered with Volkswagen of America to drive the newly released all-electric AWD ID.4. Her team made history as the first EV crossover to complete it. She covered the event solely as media in 2019/2020, too. Mercedes also partnered with Andy as his navigator for the 2020 Alcan 5000 Rally. They were the tribute 4x4 to legendary racer Rod Hall, placing 2nd in the Historical Class and achieving Finisher/Arctic awards, as well as the coveted Go Farther award. Andy and Mercedes are partnering with Subaru of America with an Outback Wilderness for this year's summer Alcan 5000 Rally. This Outback Wilderness will be slightly customized to enhance its already capable OEM AWD "softroading" platform. 5,000+ miles, 10 days, 30% or so gravel/dirt. This year's Alcan 5000 Rally will take competitors from Washington state through Canada's most remote surroundings. This includes Quesnel, Telegraph Creek, Whitehorse, Dawson City, Skagway, Yellowknife, with a finish in Jasper, Alberta. The Alcan 5000 Rally is in August/early Sept. They have competed in the winter Alcan 5000 Rally in Feb./March of 2020 with our Mitsubishi Pajero right-hand-drive diesel, in temps to -43 and beyond. A wide array of other customized 4x4s also competed in winter 2020, with lots of challenges for all competitors. Andy and Mercedes have had a long-standing relationship with Subaru as well as Subaru Motorsports, covering the Oregon Trail Rally races (on the ground and once even via their helicopter photographing Travis Pastrana and David Higgins as they rallies the event), reviewing their vehicles for various publications, and owning a few Subarus ourselves (we actually picked up a 2022 Crosstrek w/ manual transmission). This Subie will complement three customized RHD Mitsubishi turbo-diesel 4x4s we own (or primary project vehicles), as well as a subcompact car.

In this episode of the Open Paddock RallyCast presented by Oz Rally Pro we reflect on Oregon Trail Rally's past with Chairman Doug Heredos, Clerk of the Course Rebecca Ruston, Volunteer and competitor Dylan Hooker, and driver of the zero car from Team Fugawi? Lee Sorenson.
In this episode we talk with what we've concluded as America's most internationally experienced co-driver, Alex Kihurani. We get a little bit of background on the young man once known to many as "Rally Brat" who now takes on the world's most epic stages. Alex gives us a comparison of rallying overseas vs here in the states as well as how he teamed up with another American in Europe, Sean Johnston. This year the two took on both the Junior WRC and ERC achieving something that hasn't been done by an American since John Buffum, a WRC class podium. The future is the brightest it's been for Americans in the WRC for a long time, as Sean and Alex continue their journey with a move up to the WRC3 class for 2020. You can follow Sean and Alex as they take on the WRC at the following links: Sean Johnston Instagram - Facebook - Twitter Alex Kihurani Instagram - Linked-In Alex also wrote an amazing series about his discovery that he had a rare form of leukemia while heading to the Oregon Trail Rally, and how living in the UK probably saved his life.
