1962 was the second year of the Victorian Trials Championship and it was again won by Geoff Russell, this time in a Ford Falcon XL. He was partnered by Richard Collingwood who won the 1962 navigators title.
1962 also saw the emergence of Harry Firth and Ford as a dominant force in Victorian, and later, national rallying. The “Fox” won both the 1962 BP Rally and the 1962 Alpine Trial, both in a Ford Anglia
