With an apparently avid hunger for success, reigning Champion Naushad Kara has vowed to retain the Coast Rally Championship title this year round racing his azure-blue Subaru N12 contraption. But the Lota Motorsports driver will have to employ all the tricks in the book to eclipse red-hot Yamakasi ace, Said Hamad.

The natural reaction is for us to flash at the offending driver in the hope that they will dim their lights. It is always annoying when they in turn then put on their full lights and dazzle the flasher. Whenever this happens, we are left wondering what it was that we missed when flashing at the apparent offender in the first place.
