The Barbados Rally Club will host it's final championship round on November 24th & 25th with it's "Winter Rally". The rally will kick off with two stages at Vaucluse Raceway on the Friday Night (November 24th), and an additional 12 stages on the Saturday afternoon/night (November 25th), covering a total of approximately 70 stage kilometers.
