With the event on July 31st this year which is earlier than previous years it is hoped more 6R4 drivers can make it
Two more names that have said would be interested is that of Sandy Arbuthnott in his Clarion replica machine and former Lurgan Park regular from the past ex rallycrosser Denis Biggerstaff.
Donegal man Gary McElhinney asked Denis while he had the Metro over at a friends wedding said he was interested in competing but the engine is due a check but he would like to be there
It is also hoped that either Frank or his son Bryan O'Mahoney would be out in their 6R4
So far here are a list of names that have expressed an interest
Craig Bennett
John Stone (could do the event in his car that he sold if its available)
Mark Jasper
Reay Mackay
Andy Horne
Alastair McSkimming
Jimmy McRae if a car can be sourced for him
Sandy Arbuthnott
Denis Biggerstaff
Scott Coursey of well known rally news site Rallybuzz.com has generously offered to donate £100 towards the Metro 6R4 Lurgan Challenge
Along with the £50 from Metro 6R4 Online News and a picture prize of the last 6R4 winners at Lurgan the late Tony Pond / Don Wilmont by Roy Dempster of Roydempster.com it is hoped it can tempt the 6R4's to come back to the park.
If a reduced rate on ferry costs can be got then thats less cost for the competing crews
If any of the 6R4 drivers that are on here are interested then please email me on [email:22qav30z]metro6r4onlinenews@yahoo.co.uk[/email:22qav30z]
