Mark Higgins scored a tremendous second place overall today on the Plains Rally against some stiff world rally car opposition.
Marcus Dodd won the event in his Hyundai WRC but was only 12secs ahead of Higgins in the BGM MG Super 2000. Geoff Jones brought his Focus WRC home third ahead of Hugh Hunter in another Focus and Shaun Gardner finished fifth in his Evo 5.
