Paddy's Day Sprint in Tynagh
by Eoin Noonan

A rare sunny day in Tynagh saw the Carlow MC run an excellent sprint. The event brought out a big entry and all classes were well represented. Many people were using the event to shake down cars for the coming season and also some were using the event to try out cars that had been bought for this season.

The eventual winner of the event was one of those people that was trying out a new car. Not only was he trying out a new car but it was Paul O'Connell's first time out in competition in a single seater. The ex-Cyril Lynch car proved to be the quickest one on the track even though it may not have been the most powerful. Throughout the day Paul and Seamus Morris in the Darrian fought it out for the fastest time but it was O'Connell that emerged the victor.

Well done to Declan Grogan and his team from Carlow MC for running a great event.
