West Cork Rally

The Quality Hotels West Cork Rally will be run on March 14/15. It's the 31st time for the Cork Motor Club event, and the seventh year it has been sponsored by the Quality Hotel in Clonakilty.

The event brings together competitors from Ireland, north and south, as well as Wales, England and Scotland. Clerk of the course this year is Darren McCarthy who also has experience of running the Cork Forest Rally these past few years.

Despite increased costs the club has held the entry fee at the 2008 price of €630. There are 16 stages and 240km of competition mileage. Road mileage at 170km is again very low this year while service will be centralised as usual near Clonakilty.

Accommodation may be sourced by contacting Joan White on 086 3776451, (00 353 86 3776451 from the UK) between 7pm and 9pm or by emailing joan@westcorkrally.com.
