Making the Coffs Coast Rally ‘Super’

This year’s Coffs Coast Rally will welcome Supercheap Auto as the event’s naming rights partner.

To be known as the Supercheap Auto Coffs Coast Rally, the event is the final round of the RSEA Safety Motorsport Australia Rally Championship (ARC), as well as the finale of the FIA Asia Pacific Rally Championship (APRC) which will see a host of national and international rally crews descend on the iconic Coffs Coast region.

The event, to be held on 25-27 November, will feature a wide range of rally cars across some world renowned stages, some previously used in Rally Australia.

Kiwi WRC driver Hayden Paddon has confirmed his participation in the event, taking on local stars including Harry and Lewis Bates in what will be a massive battle.

Spectating the event will be free for the entire weekend, including access to the Service Park at the C.ex Coffs International Stadium.

Supercheap Auto Managing Director Benjamin Ward said fans would get the opportunity to experience the Supercheap Auto Clubhouse, which had been a feature at Shannons Motorsport Australia Championships events in 2022.

“The Supercheap Auto Coffs Coast Rally will showcase the best drivers across Australia and the Asia Pacific region and we are thrilled to be partnering with Motorsport Australia on this international event,” Ward said.

“As part of our support of this event, rally fans will get the opportunity to experience our Supercheap Auto Clubhouse, which provides plenty of entertainment, food and drink as well as driver appearances throughout the weekend. It’s a really unique experience, right in the heart of the Service Park.

“We’re looking forward to ‘making it Super’ on the Coffs Coast in November.”
 
Motorsport Australia Director of Motorsport & Commercial Operations Michael Smith thanked Supercheap Auto for their ongoing support of motorsport.

“Supercheap Auto are a great supporter of all levels of motorsport and we’re excited to be working with them at the Supercheap Auto Coffs Coast Rally,” Smith said.

“The event promises to be a fitting finale for the ARC, as well as a super spectacle with the APRC component of the event bringing some world-class international rally drivers to Australian shores.”
