Young
Limerick Crew take victory in Junior Rally
Askeaton's Kevin O'Connor and Donal Balfe drove to an impressive
victory in the Nenagh Stages Junior Rally on Sunday.
This was Kevin's first time competing in his new Citroen C2R2
and it didnt take him to long to re-adapt to front wheel drive
and left hand drive. His last stage time would have been good
enough for 9th O/A in the main field!
This allowed him to take victory from Darren McKenna who also
put in some very respectable times during the event. But i'm
sure most people will agree with a performance like this, that
19 year old, Kevin is showing great signs of pure natural talent.
He
was delighted to have won this event, as he was only hoping
for a good clean run and respectable finish.
This
event was round 1 of the Dunlop National Junior Rally Championship.
This victory has given the limerick crew a dream start to the
season.
