    WRC New York

    The Sullivan County Visitors Association and Rally New York, Ltd. have reached an agreement to pursue a bid for a future round of the World Rally Championship.

    Rally New York is seeking approval to submit a bid to the Federation Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) to host a World Rally Championship here in the Sullivan County Catskills. The FIA is interested in expanding the World Rally series especially with a location in the United States. The observation year would be slated for early 2007 with the actual event held from 2008 on an annual basis.

    Rally New York has already received approval from the Town Supervisors of the towns where the championship would be held and legislative approval from Sullivan County.

    New York is a big state.
    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    Sullivan County is to Manhattan like Kia is to Ferrari Regardless of the venue, having a WRC event in the states is really awesome.
