To say that Barbados is motorsport crazy is an understatement. During the month leading up to the largest spectator event on the island there us a palpable buzz in the air and wherever you explore people are keen to know if you’re here for the rally. Between events, visitors to the island spend many of their days visiting all corners of Barbados and familiarizing themselves with the stages. Learning to get around like a local when the roads are closed and the action is moving from stage to stage.

Just punch in the venue on your GPS and you’re off on your adventure to the east. While you won’t be able to race your rental car, you will be treated to high quality motorsport action between some of the fastest Japanese cars on the island.
Stoute’s Car Rental Ltd. is the preferred provider of hired cars, vans and SUV’s for the SOL Rally Barbados and Scotiabank King of the Hill. Teams, support crews and family & friends depend on the ability to be mobile and flexible with their travel throughout the event, and a rental vehicle provides that.
