An innovation this year will be cars such as a full house Audi Quattro, Peugeot 205 T16 and a Ford RS200 from the fabulous Group B era of rallying. These will run behind the main rally on six of the eight special stages.

As ever a full day of motorsport, as well as a family fun day out, is promised within the confines of the beautiful Craigavon Borough Council’s Lurgan Park.
