William Splashes to Shackleton Junior Rally and Championship Victory!Posted: August 4, 2014 12:16 PM
The sixth round of the 2014 McGrady Insurance Junior 1000 Rally Challenge Ireland, took place on the former military base at Shackleton on Saturday for the Dogleap Tarmac Stages Rally. It was the first time that the Maiden City Motor Club event was contested by the Junior 1000 crews and a record eight cars took the start. The series also supported by the rally classified ad site www.rallysales.eu is now in its third season, and the 14-17 year olds are guided by highly experienced rally drivers and co-drivers who brave the co-driver’s seats to pass on their valuable experience to these teenage stars of the future.
RiverRidge Recycling DogLeap Tarmac Stages Rally 2014 LaunchedPosted: July 25, 2014 8:25 AM
Pictured at the launch are (LtoR) Deputy Mayor, Alderman Gary Middleton of Derry City Council, Eoin McGuickan, Operations Manager of RiverRidge Recycling and Alderman Alan Robinson, Mayor of Limavady with members of the Maiden City Motor Club and some of the key competitors. The RiverRidge Recycling Dogleap Tarmac Stages Rally was officially launched in Limavady on Wednesday 23rd July. A number of sponsors, organisers including the Foyle Hospice, the nominated charity of the event were present. The Rally is set to take place on Saturday 2nd August at Shackleton. This year’s event, organised by Maiden City Motor Club, is set to thrill rally fans from far and wide and boost tourism to the area by providing a truly action-packed day! Clerk of the Course, Ian Connolly, commented, “I am really looking forward to the rally and I am very confident that the team will put on a great event. It is particularly pleasing that RiverRidge Recycling are back on board again. Jon McIvor has made this event very successful over the past couple of years and that will be a hard act to follow. We intend to stick to the same format, which proved so popular with the competitors last year. There will be six stages totalling just short of 40 stage miles. Value for money is always important so I am delighted to confirm that there will be no increase in entry fee. “Last year’s rally was incredibly successful, and we would urge people that if they are still looking to take part in the rally, there are still some last minute entry places available. They are filling up, so please register as soon as possible! I'm also very happy our nominated charity is once again, the Foyle Hospice. This is a very worthy cause and the work they do and care they give, is remarkable. I'm delighted that we are able to assist in a small way.” Leading waste management and recycling company, RiverRidge Recycling is the main sponsor of the DogLeap Tarmac Stages Rally at Shackleton for the third year running. Eamon Doherty, Financial Director at RiverRidge Recycling said, “This was an easy decision for the company and I to support. RiverRidge's ethos is very much about assisting the community, business and local events through practical activities and sponsoring events. For us this is a key event in our calendar. For a number of years I’ve been involved in motorsport and when possible I head off at the weekend with my brother-in-law and operations manager at RiverRidge Recycling, Eoin McGuickan, and ‘cruise’ around the countryside in my Ford Escort Gp4 Rally car.” The Derry City Council Deputy Mayor, Alderman Gary Middleton and the Mayor of Limavady Borough Council, Alderman Alan Robinson, were also present at the launch. Derry City Council Deputy Mayor, Alderman Gary Middleton very much welcomed the return of the rally after the major success of last year's event, stating: “The return of the rally is great news for the area as it attracts visitors from all over and is a great event for all over. This is a great event for all including locals, businesses and the wider community across the in the North West.” The Mayor of Limavady Borough Council, Alderman Alan Robinson added: “The past few years have been particularly difficult for motorsport during the recession, so it is great to see that the RiverRidge Recycling DogLeap Tarmac Stages Rally is going from strength to strength. I’d like to commend the Club for their hard work and efforts to date in ensuring such a successful event!” Rally Launch - (Wed) 23 Jul 14Posted: July 21, 2014 10:31 PM
