As you know, Evgeny Novikov is 18 years old. And in Russia most of rallylovers and spectators (and drivers, if to be honest) are 30 and older. So, the difference is one generation... So we decided, using all our possibilities, to start new professional project - RallyRUS Junior Club, for new rally generation from 12 to 25. Using their "language", using social networks, guitars, DJs and heavy metal music. Telling young people about motorsports in stories from rallies, about travelling, adventures, heroism in normal life... and in the same time - about technics, what is turbo, why the car drifts on gravel surfaces and why we see drift in rally but not in tarman events, what is NOx and how it works in the engine... And so on. :)
By the way, if Estonians have their first Young Rally Championship (for drivers aged 12-18, 4 rounds through the year), why not to have in Russia first Rally Educational Project? I spoke to legendary drivers, and they are ready to tell stories for young people in new project... Everything wonderful!!
Now I think - to start the project from the very beginning both in English and Russian or only in Russian it will be enough? :) I think that young man (or lady, why not?), reading stories in interesting way about rallying and other categories of motorsports, will become interested to try driving by him or herself, to visit races, to write news or to take photos. Maybe to complete musik, or to read something more about brave people, maybe classics?
Oh, I said too much. There is only one thing to do now - just to do this. Well, I like it!
