Not long ago I told by the Swedish Rally organisers initiative to let the spectators decide the heats on the super special stage in Swedish Rally 2009 – this year arranged as a Swedish Championship rally since Sweden doesn’t have WRC status again until next year. Now the idea has been tested in real life, and the organisers say that they got a lot of suggestions of heats.

Already when I wrote the first post, I pushed for the Swedish Rally to test this thing in the WRC too – and now that seems to become true. In today’s VF (Swedish newspaper) Bertil Klarin, managing director of the Swedish Rally, says that they hope to repeat the same next year. Awesome!
