1. Welcome and Introduction
1.1
On behalf of the organising committee for Rally New Zealand may I extend a warm welcome to all competitors and their teams, media and other participants. Your attendance is important to us and the world of rallying, and we do look forward to welcoming and working with you to make sure that you enjoy your visit to New Zealand. For first time visitors to New Zealand we recommend that you fly into Auckland International Airport which has daily services by all major international airlines from most Asian and European cities. Rally New Zealand is based at the Mystery Creek Events Centre in Hamilton. Mystery Creek is located just 5 minutes from Hamilton Airport. Driving time from Auckland to Hamilton is an easy 1 ½ hours (around 130kms). If you require transport from Auckland International Airport to Mystery Creek please contact Greg Paul Coachlines at: [email protected] This year New Zealand is hosting the 11th Round of the FIA World Rally Championship and the 5th Round of the FIA Production World Rally Championship. The shift to August/September means that you will enjoy our approaching spring season; temperatures will range from 10 – 15 degrees Celsius with occasional rain. This will be somewhat cooler to last year's 15 to 20 degrees Celsius. Sunrise will be around 0640hrs with sunset at 1800hrs. Rally New Zealand will again be based at the highly successful Mystery Creek Events Centre, just south of Hamilton. Rally HQ, Service Park, Parc Fermé, Media Centre, Scrutineering, Shakedown and our Super Special Stage will all be accommodated within this 87 hectare site which contains a Pavilion and Convention Centre. The WRC teams' cars will be serviced inside the Pavilion with spectators being able to view this servicing from specially constructed grandstands. Improved access to the Service Park includes a ring road routing for competitors, plus an under cover Media Interview area. "Eye in the Sky" live television coverage has been a feature in New Zealand for many years and teams can again view the action on the stages, live from the service park. The special stages feature the relatively smooth and cambered roads which New Zealand provides, and these are always a true test of driver ability. As last year Leg 1 of our event will be held in the famed Pirongia – Waitomo region including two passes of the challenging 43km Te Koraha Stage, this year renamed "Waitomo", in keeping with its location. This stage is smooth, fast and flowing but has many challenges for competitors. Leg 2 returns to the Franklin and Te Akau regions with the Klondyke Stage renamed "Possum" in recognition of the late Possum Bourne who was an icon of this district. The extremely challenging 31km Wairamarama Stage has also been renamed "Franklin". Last year this stage was run in the rain and a number of competitors failed to finish it. Leg 3 will again be held in the in the familiar Raglan region with the Whaanga Coast Stage continuing to provide spectacular sea views. This year we will have a remote service at the Raglan Airfield, a venue that we have previously used many times as a Service Park. This will enable the people of Raglan an opportunity to see World Rally Servicing at its best. The information contained in this Rally Guide is designed to assist you to ensure that your visit to New Zealand is free of any logistical or operational problems. If you should require any further information, we have assembled a competent and efficient team to assist you, so please do not hesitate to contact the Rally Secretariat. As always the event has been put together with safety and you the competitor in the forefront of our planning and we would like to wish you all a safe, successful and enjoyable rally. Finally we wish to congratulate the 2006 winners of Rally New Zealand, Marcus Gronholm and Timo Rautiainen in their Ford Focus RS WRC 06. Your achievements are a tribute to your team's efforts. Willard Martin Clerk of the Course Rally Guide 2 – 2007-08-03 www.rallynz.org.nz

Event History
Rally New Zealand is the longest running World Championship event in the Southern Hemisphere. Rally New Zealand is this country's longest running international event that forms part of a bona fide world championship. Rally New Zealand, celebrating its 38th year in 2007, was first included as a round of the World Rally Championship in 1977. Its status has grown internationally, with the 2001 event being awarded the WRC Rally of the Year award. The 2007 edition of Rally New Zealand is the product of an event that started in 1969 as a marathon of endurance for every one involved. What was a long and involved rally in the 1980s with time to rest, repair and develop tactics on a variety of road surfaces has changed to a sprint event of approximately 350 kms. The first international event, the Shell Silver Fern Rally organised by the Wellington Car Club in 1969, was won by Grady Thompson and co-driver Rick Rimmer in a V8 powered Holden Monaro. Of the 33 starters in Taupo, 22 were classed as finishers. In 1970 the Silver Fern Rally was organised by the Canterbury Car Club and run in the South Island with a total of 67 entries. The Heatway International Rally in 1971 was the first to be accorded international status and attracted 67 entries, with 15 from outside New Zealand. There was franchise support from New Zealand Motor Corporation, Todd Motors and New Zealand Motor Lines. For the first time an overseas team, Australia's Bruce Hodgson and co-driver Mike Mitchell, scored a narrow victory in their Lotus Cortina from the Holden Torana GTR XU1 of New Zealand's Ralph Emson and co-driver Wayne Jones. Three drivers have won the Rally New Zealand on three or more occasions. The first was Carlos Sainz and co-driver Luis Moya of Spain who won for the first time in 1990. Sainz was the first driver to successfully defend his title in 1991 and went on to grab a hat-trick in 1992. All three titles were at the wheel of the Toyota Celica GT-4. The likeable Spaniard became the most successful driver in Rally New Zealand history when he gained his fourth victory in 1998. Then came the reign of Scotsman Colin McRae and co-driver Derek Ringer, and the rise of Subaru. McRae won in 1993 and 1994 before emulating Sainz with a third successive win in 1995. The most recent multiple winner is Finland's Marcus Gronholm who won in 2000, 2002, 2003 and 2006 to equal Sainz's record. Three drivers have won the New Zealand Rally on two occasions. Finland's Hannu Mikkola (1973 & 1979), his countryman, Timo Salonen (1980 & 1985), and the internationally recognized Scotsman, Andrew Cowan (1972 & 1976). New Zealand's Jim Scott, a well-known competitor and administrator, stood on the winners' rostrum on two occasions with Cowan, while Finland's Seppo Harjanne partnered Salonen for their two victories. The history of New Zealand's international rallies has been recognised by many other distinctions, including the first time a round of the World Rally Championship had been held in the Pacific region. It has also recognised the first time that British Leyland had scored World Rally Championship points for some 20 years, the first time Toyota won both the Group A and N awards on the same event and the first time the Russian Lada team competed outside Europe. Competitors continue to rate the open back-country gravel roads as a real test of driver ability, and some of the best roads in the World Rally Championship.

2006 Propecia Rally New Zealand Summary
As Propecia entered its final year of sponsorship with Rally New Zealand, the event moved southwards for the first time in many years, with rally HQ a central service park and a new Super Special Stage all based at Mystery Creek Events Centre. BP Ford took its first manufacturers' crown in over 27 years, with the Fords of Marcus Gronholm and Mikko Hirvonen leading 1-2 from start to finish. Recovering from a mountain biking accident, Sebastian Loeb participated in reconnaissance, but despite not taking part in the actual event still took the drivers crown for 2006. Manfred Stohl took the third podium position, and the OMV Peugeot Norway team finished the season second highest placed M2 Team. Despite Jari-Matti Latvala finishing first in PWRC, Nasser Al-Attiyah was crowned the PWRC champion, the first FIA World rally title to go to an Arab driver. New Zealand guest entry Richard Mason finished second in PWRC, despite competing in a 6 year old Impreza with no active central differential and a small turbo. Mason also finished the highest of any guest driver in 2006. Although they had a poor event, Subaru gained its fair share of attention with 7 times Moto-GP champion Valentino Rossi competing as a guest driver. Rossi eventually finished in 11th place overall in only his second world championship rally. RALLY NEW ZEALAND PREVIOUS WINNERS
