D-rift Battle are very pleased to announce that rally star Eugene Donnelly is to do a charity drive at D-rift Battle Round 2 in Kiltorcan, Co. Kilkenny, on May 10th and 11th. Irish Tarmac Champion 4 years in a row, Eugene Donnelly has confirmed that he is to drive with D-rift Battle, in aid of charity, on Sunday May 11th at the all new purpose built drift track at Kiltorcan, Co. Kilkenny.

Donnelly has been rallying for over 20 years, and has been driving WRC cars for over 4 years and now he will be trying his hand at the fastest growing motorsport in Ireland – drifting!

Eugene is no stranger to handling rear wheel drive cars so he should have no problem adapting to the art of drifting! So don’t miss out on your chance to see this Rally hero on the new drift track at Kiltorcan. This is the first ever event to be held on this track and who better to break it in than Eugene Donnelly.

Tickets will be for sale on the day for a once in a life time chance to get a spin around the track with Eugene Donnelly. All proceeds will be going to Autism Ireland. Eugene will also have his WRC car there on the day and will be doing a demo in that car and another lucky winner will get the chance to sit alongside Eugene when he takes the rally car out for a spin on the new track.
