The Prize List now includes: 1st overall –Voucher for 4 rally tyres, 2nd overall – Voucher for 2 rally tyres, 3rd overall- Voucher for 2 rally tyres, as well as a voucher for 2 rally tyres for 1st in each of the 7 modified classes; 9, 9a, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14, with the overall winners keeping exempt from the class prizes.
Press Release 1
-New Modified Challenge!
-West Cork Hotel to be main sponsor and HQ
-WRC interest as preparation for Rally Ireland
-Revival of classic stages
Skibbereen & District Car Club are delighted to invite crews to battle it out in the new Fastnet Modified Challenge! The Fastnet remains as the final round of the 023 Tiles Southern 4 Championship, but due to being in the ‘opt-out’ year of the Dunlop National Championship, the Club decided to use this opportunity to their advantage and give the benefit of the extra spaces to the modified clubmen. The Challenge incorporates classes 9 to 14 and is presenting the valuable prizes of 4 Rally Tyres for the overall modified winner and 2 Rally Tyres to the winner of each class.
The Fastnet Rally is pleased to have once again The West Cork Hotel as their main sponsor. This creates the ideal centralised situation of having headquarters, service, parce ferme and scrutiny all within 100meters of each other in Skibbereen.
Last year The Fastnet rally had the privilege of seeing Andreas Mikkelsen and Eugene Donnelly leading the field. Again this year, with Rally Ireland just around the corner, The Fastnet Rally is providing the ideal opportunity as a ‘shakedown’ preparation for the event.
The rally has a total stage length of 120km and is staying with the 7 stage format while offering increased stage kilometres. Along with offering the new modified challenge the experience will be further increased with the revival of some of the older classic stages, taking the crews and spectators out along the scenic Mizen Head Peninsula.
More Details and Regulations later.
