One of the many crews with new machinery to put through its paces this weekend, Colm and Ger recently took delivery of a fully active, all singing, all dancing MSP Motorsport Subaru Impreza N10. Replacing the venerable N8 that saw them through last years championship, the N10 should plug the gaps in performance where the old car suffered.

Colm, highly excited by the prospect of his new steed said “We haven’t done a whole lot of mileage in the car as yet but first impressions are that it is fantastic. The old car used to be slightly short on power when trying to drive out of low speed junctions –the N10 should be a whole different ball game”

Pirelli and Shell Racing fuels have come on board with the Limerick crew for 2005, Colm returning to the rubber that helped him to victory in the Focus Championship and joining up with Shell – Ferrari’s choice of fuel – enough said.

The MRallying team also welcome Trackcare Engineering, Garry O’Keeffe Plant and Haulage, Heatlink floor heating specialists, the Connemara Gateway Hotel and Vanity Case beauticians on board for the first event of the season. Delighted with this support, Colm reckoned “It’s fantastic to get this amount of support straight off – I’m very thankful for all my sponsors and hope to repay their faith is us this weekend!”

The First Choice Flooring Galway International kicks off this Saturday morning from Eyre Square beofre the cars head for loops of stages based in the Oranmore area on Saturday and the Ballinasloe area on Sunday.
