Having successfully completed the first round of the 6-round Deutsche Rallye Serie (Willkommen bei der Deutschen Rallye Serie 2012 .:. DRS.ag), the Kickastra Rally Team will continue their campaign in the championship by entering the Rallye Bohemia (www.rallybohemia.cz) in the Czech Republic on July 12-15, 2012.

The team of Adrian and Jonathan Linton classified as 58th out of 73 finishers and 125 entrants on the DRS season opener Rallye Lužické Hory, which was also based in the Czech Republic. The team unfortunately missed the second round of the DRS, the DMV Rallye Thüringen, as it clashed with the headline event in Barbados - Sol Rally Barbados, where Adrian is based. The team were delighted to be classified as 17th overall and 2nd in class M7 on the event in the debut of the newly self-built Vauxhall Astra SRi at the Sol Rally Barbados.

The 39th running of Rallye Bohemia is based in Mladá Boleslav, home of the Skoda factory, and is also part of the FIA European Rally Cup Region Central. The three-day rally comprises of a route of 697 kilometres with 16 special stages covering 198 kilometres, including a ceremonial start to on the first day and a side-by-side Super Special to conclude the second day. The team is hoping that the stages will be more twisty and technical, which favour's Adrian's driving style and the team's relatively underpowered car.

Adrian's son Dominic Linton, himself no stranger to the co-driver's seat, will travel with Adrian to lend support to the team. As always, team friends Team AutoScharf will support the Kickastra Rally Team during the event. The only car preparation needed is a precautionary rebuild of the Proflex front suspension after a wiper seal was cracked after hitting a hidden rock on the Rallye Lužické Hory. This is already fitted, and the car is ready to go!
