Carpark Rally at Changi
The old National Stadium was host to a uniquely Singaporean type of automobile racing in the days of the Kallang car park rallies, weekend racing events that started after the last Singapore Grand Prix in 1973.
Featuring 90-degree turns, intense straight sprints and challenging direction changes, these car park rally events gave rise to a different Kallang roar – the high-revving screams of naturally aspirated engines to whistling howls of turbocharged power plants.
Competitors from Suzuki, Renault, Mazda and Nissan backed by local dealerships saw an assortment of track tuned cars where throughout the 1990s high-powered rally cars from Subaru and Mitsubishi dominated. Many Singaporean racing drivers who went to the international circuit traced their roots from these events.
This year, the Singapore Motor Sports Association is reviving the spirit of local racing at Changi. The large car park of Aviation Park Road will now be home to the SMSA Car Park Rally @ Changi, with a mixture of hard tarmac and loose gravel to shake things up even more.
The event will be held on 8 May 2016, so stay tuned for more information in the upcoming weeks.
