Çà¹ÏÊÓƵ˜Twin TurbosÇà¹ÏÊÓƵ™ student team to take on 3,000km rally race

An adventurous University of Manchester student and his brother will be taking part in a transcontinental car rally that raises money for some of the poorest children in Morocco. 

Stanislas Çà¹ÏÊÓƵ˜StanÇà¹ÏÊÓƵ™ Dembinski, an undergraduate here at Manchester and his twin brother Cyril (who studies at lÇà¹ÏÊÓƵ™ESME in Bordeaux, France) have formed a team, Çà¹ÏÊÓƵ˜The Twin TurbosÇà¹ÏÊÓƵ™ to take part in the .  

The Çà¹ÏÊÓƵ˜4LÇà¹ÏÊÓƵ™ is a student rally of c.1,500 cars and 3,000 students from across Europe undertaking a near 3000km dash from Biarritz to Marrakech, with participants competing to arrive by the shortest possible route, equipped with only a map and compass in a Renault 4.  

Budding mechanical engineers, Stan and Cyril are both excited by the challenge of making sure their Renault 4 Çà¹ÏÊÓƵ“ the youngest model of which is about 60 years old Çà¹ÏÊÓƵ“ can survive the long and complicated journey across Europe, through AfricaÇà¹ÏÊÓƵ™s desert lands and, finally into Marrakech. TheyÇà¹ÏÊÓƵ™re also using their participation in the rally to raise money and awareness for  (Çà¹ÏÊÓƵ˜Children of the DesertÇà¹ÏÊÓƵ™) that equips some of the poorest children in Morocco with school supplies like books, pens and blackboards and, building repairing and maintaining classrooms, helping about 20,000 children every year.  

Stan would welcome any sponsorship to support their race, with supporters having the chance to have their face emblazoned on their Çà¹ÏÊÓƵ˜Twin TurbosÇà¹ÏÊÓƵ™ rally car!  

Stan said:  

Çà¹ÏÊÓƵœWeÇà¹ÏÊÓƵ™re so excited to be taking part in this rally and weÇà¹ÏÊÓƵ™re looking for sponsors to meet the costs of entering the 4L Trophy so my brother and, the Çà¹ÏÊÓƵ˜Twin TurbosÇà¹ÏÊÓƵ™ can raise money for kids who really need our help, so they can have a shot at a decent education Çà¹ÏÊÓƵ“ which we all value so much.  

Çà¹ÏÊÓƵœIt costs about Çà¹ÏÊÓƵ3000 to enter the rally and another Çà¹ÏÊÓƵ3000 to prepare the car so weÇà¹ÏÊÓƵ™re looking for generous supporters and sponsors to help us help the kids of Marrakech. In return, you can get your face and social media on the car for its journey, or you may know a company or organisation that can have their logo on the car in return for sponsorship.Çà¹ÏÊÓƵ
