Although the number of entries was slightly disappointing at 25 the quality of the field more than made up for it.

Jimmy, James and Gerard Lucey took part in their Renault, Mazda and Toyota specials respectively and Mark Murphy was out in his Subaru Legacy once again. The Culleton Brothers traveled down from Co.Laois to take part, as did Pat McCormack who came all the way from Naas.Another to travel a long distance to compete was David Fallon from Craughwell in Co.Galway.

One of the advantages of the size of the entry was the amount of runs the competitors did in the day. The first timed run was at 11.30 am and at 4.30 that evening 6 runs had been completed.
