Global RallyCross Championship
In his return to Red Bull Global Rallycross, David Higgins will drive a DirtFish Rally School-sponsored Subaru WRX STI at Red Bull Global Rallycross Seattle, which will be held at DirtFish's Snoqualmie, WA campus. Today, DirtFish and Subaru Rally Team USA revealed the livery for the #715 car that Higgins will pilot on Friday and Saturday.
The orange livery represents the first time that DirtFish has served as the primary sponsor of a Red Bull GRC driver. The brand has had a multi-year relationship with Travis Pastrana, as well as a current relationship with Bucky Lasek, two of Higgins' teammates on Subaru Rally Team USA.
Higgins last raced in Red Bull GRC in 2012, when he made it to the main event of X Games Los Angeles in a last-minute fourth entry for the team. In 2011, the Trefeglyws, Wales native earned two podium finishes in a limited schedule, including a bronze medal at X Games in head-to-head competition. Aside from rallycross, Higgins wrapped up his fourth consecutive Rally America championship and sixth career title in the series earlier this year.
Tickets are still available for Red Bull Global Rallycross Seattle, coming to DirtFish Rally School on September 26-27. They can be purchased at http://www.redbullglobalrallycross.com/SEA. Red Bull Global Rallycross Seattle will be broadcast on Sunday, September 28 at 4:30PM ET on NBC.
