The time has come again. The weekend is reserved, the route, in general, is planned, the stages have been reviewed, and it’s time to begin the third edition of Rallye Boží Bojovníci. This year, we decided to drive around the Tatras, and with that, experience stages from Rajd Śląska, Rally Liptov, and Rallye Tatry. Here are some stages we’ve driven:

• Hażlach,
• Huty,
• Toporec,
• Rel’ov.

Slovakia is a beautiful country, and it’s fantastic to drive when the Tatras, Veľká Fatra, or Malá Fatra are constantly in the horizon. The winding, narrow, up-and-down roads are just perfect for Impreza with its 525nm of torque. The people are also very friendly and open. Honestly, I’ve never had so many people wave at me and greet me as I did in Slovakia. At every petrol station, and I do mean every single one, someone would stop to talk about the car. The best moment was when we stopped in Spišské Hanušovce, where the Impreza was idling, cooling off the turbo, and we planned to go to the Potraviny to get some bread for breakfast. Suddenly, we saw two guys walking from the other side of the road, dressed in workshop clothes, and waving at us to drive into their yard. So, we hopped in the car and drove over to them. They were from Baka Motorsport, super friendly bunch. We chatted, and they showed us what they had in their yard, which was quite a lot: from GC8 to VA, and from Evo VI who someone had managed to roll to a GT-R hidden in a storage under a blanket. They liked the Impreza so much that they wanted to buy it. They said they were going to Nowy Targ in the evening to pick up another Impreza and an Evo, and invited us to join them, so they could show us some local tricks. However, we were heading west, so we waved goodbye and parted ways.
