Aug 27, 2017

The Ulster pairing of Peadar Hurson and Damien Connolly completely dominated
the Galway MC Lady Gregory Hotel Summer Rally at Gort yesterday, with their
Ford Fiesta leading from start to finish as they built up a lead , of more
than half a minute over last year’s Triton Showers National Rally champions
Roy White and James O’Brien.

Three times National title holder Niall Maguire brought his Impreza home in
third place, another 39 seconds down, with the new combination of Stephen
Wright and Karl Atkinson fourth in yet another Fiesta. Gary Kiernan was the
winner of the rally.ie two wheel drive award, taking fifth overall in his
Escort.

Ireland’s Young Rally Driver of the Year Josh Moffett recovered from
Saturday’s suspension problems on his Combilift Fiesta to finish fourth in
the Under 28 Junior category of the European Rally Championship round in the
Czech Republic.

At Mondello Park, veteran all-rounder Steve Griffin, who has been motor
racing for more than fifty years, scored a double at the Historic Festival
meeting when he ran away from the opposition in Liam Plower’s MG Midget to
easily win both races.
