Galway Motor Club regrets to announce that in the light of a worsening Foot and Mouth Disease scare, the proposed running of the West International Rally 2001 has been postponed. It had been planned for November 2nd/3rd 2001.

The decision was not taken lightly, but the Committee had regard for potential risks to the agricultural industry, and the cancellation of other events in the area to restrict the spread of the disease should it break out in Ireland.
