Sunday saw Imokilly Motor club run our final event of the year, our autocross. The action kicked off at 11:00 in Carrigatogher. The event was the final round of the Naas Driving Academy, Training Solutions National Autocross Championship. It was also a counting round of the Munster Autocross Championship and our very own Imokilly club championship.
Despite the damp conditions over 40 cars and specials turned up to take part in the event. The day was full of action packed racing with the specials preceded by the saloon class. The Buggies provided some top class sideways entertainment for the crowd who braved the weather to spectate.
Ian O’Connell won the event in his Berrisford Suzuki with a time of 3:32.83. from Ian Byrne at +6s behind, and 3rd was Aidan white who was just half a second further adrift after a closely fought battle.
Local interest came in the form of the McEvoy brothers Evan and Aaron who finished 1st and 2nd in class 3 respectively.
COC for the day Tony O’Driscoll extended his thanks to all the marshals who helped throughout and before the event.
