Sno*Drift post race podium interviews with Chris Duplessis and Dillon Van Way

One year ago as the lone Fiesta entered in Rally America, Dillon Van Way posted Fiesta's first North American 2WD rally class win at Sno*Drift. This year four Fiesta were entered in the 2WD class and 2010 2WD champion Chris Duplessis and his R2 Fiesta dominated the 2WD field winning by 5 minutes and 36 seconds over veteran rally driver Andrew "ACP" Comrie-Picard in a Scion. Van Way, the 2009 2WD champ, was third in class just 21 seconds behind ACP and closing as the rally ended.

Duplessis, who finished eleventh overall, was strong from the start winning the first stage by 32 seconds and systematically building on his lead by posting the fastest 2WD time in the first nine stages. Van Way was quickest in three stages and overall Fiesta won 21 of 23 states including nine stages by ten-seconds or more.

Rally America returns to action February 24-25 in Salem, MO for the Rally in the 100 Acre Wood.
