Funding Boost For Gallagher

The funding is part of a Stranding Scheme, which recognised his achievements during 2004. Drivers had to meet specific criteria set out by Motorsport Ireland and Shaun became eligible following his exceptional results against some of Europe’s stiffest competition in the French Peugeot 206 Cup. The Donegal driver is also the only rally driver in the country to be selected under the scheme.

“I am really delighted,” commented Shaun. “We were forced to cut our 2004 season short due to lack of funding so its great to have our achievements recognised in this way.”
