>> Rally forced down to 8 stages

Carlow Car Club would like to announce that due to circumstances beyond our control we have had to reduce our Stages Rally to 8 stages instead of 9 as originally planned. Every effort was made to avoid this loss but unfortunately it was unavoidable. Due to this stage 1 will be run twice and stages 2 and 3 three times.

Entries are still coming in strong with some top names appearing on our entry list. Last years MkII Challenge winner Simon Mauger will be returning this year and Manus Kelly is also set to tackle the stages. Local man Terence O’Shaughnessy is said to be making every effort to have his Toyota Corolla ready in time for the event while David and George Condell are set to be strong contenders in the MkII Challenge.

Entries are available on the EVO online system or by post to the Entries Secretary, Ms Charlotte Egan, Carlow Car Club, Gilbertstown, Rathoe, Co Carlow, entry forms can be downloaded from the website www.mkiichallenge.com
