Dessie Keenan where have u been
Well done has to be said to this young man on his first outing in a wrc machine,
Dessie won the Monaghan rally around of the national championshp in what was said to be very difficult conditions. He beat all the national regulars with an incridable display of driving and the question is, is there a budget there to allow this man more seat time in the Mckinstry Motorsport Impreza, if there is and he can get the sponsors Eugene Donnelly and Mark Higgins will want to be watching there mirrors in the future
Just like to say again well doneES

Everybody in irish rallying knows of Dessie Keenan. He has just never had the funds required to step up to the highest level. He has amazing talent, anybody who saw him in the magnificent black Mark 2 or the Evo would agree.
Hopefully this result will lead to more sponsorship and let him have a crack at the national or tarmac series.keep her between the hedges

Yeah, most know of his ability, but I suppose all the talk yesterday on the stages was how he would adapt to the impreza given it was his first drive in such a car.
Conditions were slippy and he posted joint second fastest time on stage 1 with Patrick Elliott in the much newer S11 and never looked back really.
I'd say his father Enda ( who drove the mark 2 as a double 0 car yesterday ) was over the moonkeep her between the hedges
First leg he will be thinking in Portuguese championship. Then he can go for WRC2.
