Olympus Rally

After being observed by the FIA for WRC status in 1985, from 1986–1988, the Olympus was a round of the World Rally Championship.

The 1985 Olympus “World Championship Prototype” event was won by Hannu Mikkola and Arne Hertz in a Group B Audi Quattro S1.

Markku Alen emerged on top of the results as the 1986 Olympus first gained full World Championship status, taking a Lancia Delta S4 and co-driver Ilkka Kivimäki to victory.

In 1987, the Olympus was attended by a number of top international teams, including Nissan, Toyota, and Suzuki.

In 2017 it became sanctioned by the American Rally Association and has been a round in the ARA National Championship since then.
