Stefan TRAJKOV joins ALASTAIR SCULLY AS THE TEAM ADVANCES INTO RC2 CLASS FOR 2025 ARA SEASON
Last week, Scully announced a massive change for the 2025 American Rally Association season, graduating from the L2WD class to join the RC2 class and a new team, REVO Presented By Green APU, for his sophomore year of competition and the team’s first ever 2-car initiative. The 24-year-old will be driving an R5 spec Hyundai i20 alongside teammate and 2023 RC2 National Champion, Patrick Gruszka, who has been instrumental in assisting Alastair’s transition into the new car.
Joining the RC2 newcomer is Stefan Trajkov, an already decorated co-driver who is also stepping up to the RC2 class for the first time, providing the opportunity for immense growth among the team throughout the season.
“I’m extremely excited for the season ahead with Stefan! He came highly recommended by a number of mentors that I trust wholeheartedly, and they were right about him. The two of us have gotten along extraordinarily well both in and out of the car, and I think we have a big opportunity to gain experience and grow together this year as we are both entering this highly competitive class for the first time!” - Alastair Scully
Although the 100 Acre Wood Rally will mark the start of their national RC2 Campaign, it is not the start of the pair’s journey together. The two worked alongside one another at Show-Me Rally where they placed 2nd in class, and then again at Sno*Drift Rally where they won 1st in class and 3rd overall.
“In 2024, Alastair and I had the opportunity to work together at a regional rally. Before we even arrived at the venue, we knew we would be getting along just fine. Throughout our first two events together, Alastair has shown a fiery desire for motorsports. In a sport of high stakes such as stage rally, it is crucial to have absolute dedication and commitment to the work required in achieving success. It is not a one man show, but instead takes a small village of individuals in perfect sync to accomplish the undertaking of even a single podium finish. Alastair and I compliment each other well both in the car and out. I look forward to the progress we can achieve together in 2025 as part of the REVO Presented By Green APU team in the Hyundai i20 R5.” - Stefan Trajkov
“This is a big step for us, but I think it’s one that we are capable of taking on for 2025 and we hope to put up increasingly competitive times as the season progresses. There is a lot of tough competition in our class this year, but that's what makes it such a great challenge for us! It’s only my second full year in racing, but we are fighters and we came here to prove it!” - Alastair Scully
Looking at the season ahead, it is safe to say that the pairing will be one to watch.
