Lancia Stratos – Vodka Kick – Steve Perez

Lancia Stratos – Vodka Kick – Steve Perez

Since purchasing his Lancia Stratos Rally Car a few years ago, Steve Perez has become the modern day equivalent of the Chequered Flag Stratos Rally Team of the 1970s.

Steve has campaigned his Stratos Rally Car in the British Historic Rally Championship, and competes each year in the Roger Albert Clark Rally held in the UK each year.

Like his predecessors, The Chequered Flag Stratos Rally Team, his efforts backed by his Vodka Kick drinks company have had there ups and downs, but Steve has delighted thousands of UK Stratos Fans by bringing out his Stratos on numerous UK rallies.

He even arranged for Rally Legend, and former Lancia Stratos Works Driver, Bjorn Waldergaard, to drive the car on the Robin Hood Historic Rally.

Here are some images of his car on the 2008 Roger Albert Clark Rally.

Steve just finished the 2009 Roger Albert Clark Rally, and then immediately flew out to compete in the East African Safari Rally.

By finishing the 2009 event in his Stratos, this was the first time that Steve manage to get the Stratos to the end of the Roger Albert Clark Rally.

It is already reported that he will return to the event with his Stratos in 2010, and the car is planned to be completely rebuilt for that event.
