MOTORSPORT SAFETY FUND XMAS CARD FEATURES STRATOS

Few cars stir the blood of rally enthusiasts quite like Lancia`s iconic Stratos, and the subject of the Motorsport Safety Fund`s 2009 charity Christmas card will certainly rekindle memories of these mid-engined monsters barking their way through the forests of the RAC rallies of the `70s.

The card`s front cover features "Stratos in Dalby", a painting by Gary Milburn of Italian ace Sandro Munari opposite-locking his way through the famous Yorkshire forest stage during the 1974 event, on which he won his class and finished third overall.

It Is hard to imagine anybody with better credentials for such a depiction - Gary was born and still lives in Yorkshire. He is also a dyed-in-the-wool rally marshal, with no fewer than 25 consecutive RAC Rallies to his name. Further examples of his art can be found at www.autoart-uk.com.

The cards are priced at £6.50 for 10 (including envelopes, postage and packing);they are available from: Motorsport Safety Fund, Penny Farthing, Heythrop, Chipping Norton OX7 5TW.
