Total Tara Rally back

NAMPA The 51st edition of the Total Tara Rally was launched in Windhoek last week, with 30 cars expected to take part in the race to be contested over three days.Speaking during the launch, Windhoek Motor Club (WMC) chairperson Richard Slamet, who is also on the organising committee chairperson for the Tara Rally, paid tribute to Anja Lingner, who died on 20 October.“Anja was a great leader that easily found the balance between being stern and fair. She was set in her ways, but still managed to take advice from the rest of the committee and apply it in such a way that made it work best,” he said.Slamet added that Lingner, who saved as a chairperson of the Tara Rally for two years, will be greatly missed by the organising committee, the WMC and motorsport enthusiasts all over the country.“Her contribution towards rallying has made a great impact and will be felt for many years to come,” he said.Slamet said organising the rally has a lot of hurdles, but he is happy all will be in place ahead of the event.“I am happy to see the Tara Rally celebrating 51 years of existence, and this year we will continue to make this rally exciting, as we start competing from Swakopmund to Windhoek,” he said.Slamet said only 13 vehicles have been registered to compete in this year’s event so far, but they are expecting more entries locally and from South Africa.
