FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


Cork Motor Club's Christmas Rally Sprint...

Formally Known as the Christmas Autocross...

We're back from the Rally Sprint!

Well, a great day was had by all (except for Casey Rallysport's "The Stig") The event was won by Jason Ryan in a Civic, from Michael O'Sullivan in an Escort and Jason O'Brien in a 206. More news and photos are on Cork Motor Club's Site.

For the important bits. Casey Rallysport's day out was cut short by their Stig, who planted the COC's Peugeot 205 in the barrier, breaking all in sundry. Owen Murphy's day started well, when the starter fell out of the Golf (I heard of lightening, but that's too far!) and Mick Linehan took great pleasure of showing everybody a picture he took of Camper's Handbag! Anthony O Conaill also decided, at the end of the day, that he liked navigating better, after he spent the day trying to break Tadhg's Peugeot!

Camper, Dell & Mol (aka Pippi) were doing timing for the event, ably assisted by Greg Shinnors, Mick Linehan and Sean Hogan. Big T was marshalling on the chicane, and spent the day putting it back together. The Bun & Steak spent the day trying to drive around the track, and we didn't cock it up (much), which is a surprise.
