In Episode 2 of Full Travel, Lovells owner Simon Crane raises the stakes - from a terrifying passenger lap at 150km/h through the trees, to rally school in Newcastle, to the real thing: the 2025 Lovells Alpine Rally of East Gippsland at Lakes Entrance. Three days of narrow dirt stages with international co-driver Matt Dillon calling the corners, against drivers who have done this their whole lives. Boomer's goal is simple: finish, and don't come last.
