Any rally gathering can turn into a party, but the parc fermé before LSPR is always a guaranteed good time. This one was held on Thursday, at Fox Marquette Subaru, in Marquette, Michigan.
Subaru Motorsports USA driver Travis Pastrana reacquaints himself with the interior of his 2025 WRX ARA25L before the rally start.
Pastrana’s 2025 Subaru WRX ARA25L waits patiently, lights on and ready to go, before the start of LSPR.

Rally cars carry their driver and co-driver names on the side glass, along with the nationalities of the competitors. (Gelsomino’s name is atop Pastrana’s because these decals are on her side of the car; the arrangement is reversed on Pastrana’s side.)

Pastrana and Gelsomino's victory at LSPR was more than a class victory - they took first overall even against faster classed competition!
Fan access has always been one of rally’s strengths, and LSPR is no different—as rally cars pass by at full commit, fans stand on a hill on the inside of a stage corner.
