Triton Showers Championship Preview - CARLOW CRACKER SHOWERED WITH CAPACITY ENTRY
Posted: May 6, 2016 9:56 AM
The third round of the Triton Showers National Rally Championship, the Carlow based Seven Oaks Hotel Rally takes place this Sunday. It features a cracking entry and with the exception of top seed Wesley Patterson (Ford Escort), who won last year's rally, the top ten is a lock-out of World Rally Cars.
Just twelve months ago Lisburn driver Patterson took a dramatic final stage win edging out Welsh driver Steve Wood (Subaru WRC) by a mere one tenth of a second.
Opposition this time around is without doubt the best of the Triton season to date with former champion Donegal's Declan Boyle (Ford Fiesta WRC) hoping to continue the form that gave him a fine victory in the last round in Kerry.
Opening round winner Garry Jennings is seeded at number three in his Subaru WRC, however, he is in a race against the clock to have his car ready in time after he crashed out of the lead in last week's Rally of the Lakes in Killarney. The Fermanagh driver also netted maximum points from the Power Stage in Mayo and on current form will be the barometer of pace.
Meanwhile, Clonmel's Roy White, also in a Ford Fiesta WRC, is the current leader of the eight round series courtesy of a fourth place finish in Mayo and second in Kerry.
"Yes, I'm delighted to be leading the Triton Showers series but it is early days yet. I'm hoping to increase my pace so as to be closer to the likes of Declan Boyle and of course Garry Jennings. I expect that Peadar (Hurson) will also be a big threat and Niall Maguire as well."
Warrenpoint's Peadar Hurson (Subaru WRC) won the series in 1992 and is one of the favourites to figure well in Carlow. On the last round in Kerry he was not at his usual pace as his Subaru struggled with set-up issues. Former triple champion Monaghan's Niall Maguire (Subaru WRC) is showing some good form as he chases down that elusive fourth national crown.
The top ten also includes Cork driver Daragh O'Riordan in his Ford Fiesta WRC, he crashed on the final stage in Kerry and will be aiming to get back to form in Carlow where Welsh aces Melvyn Evans and Steve Wood, both in Subaru WRC's and series sponsor Kevin Barrett (Subaru WRC) complete the impressive top ten.
Evans is of course a former champion - in 2010 he became the first overseas driver to win the national series.
Meanwhile, the event will feature the WRC debuts of two drivers - Longford's Tommy Doyle and Donegal's Manus Kelly. Doyle has driven an array of rally cars while Kelly is renowned for campaigning Mk. 2 Escorts, it certainly be interesting to see how both will fare on the nine-stage rally.
Elsewhere, there are also places for overseas drivers Simon Chapman (Proton) and Sebastian Ling (Mitsubishi), the latter is amongst the Group N entry that also includes Monaghan's Shane Maguire (Mitsubishi Evo IX), Tyrone's Aidan Wray (Mitsubishi Evo X), Maynooth's Paul Barrett (Subaru), Donegal's Trevor Bustard (Mitsubishi Evo IX) and Dubliner Neil Tohill (Mitsubishi IX).
In the last round in Kerry, Barrett notched up his first category win in a National event. The top twenty is rounded off by Cavan's Stephen McCann in the ex-Denis Cronin Subaru WRC.
The rally also features the popular Mk. 2 Challenge with some of the best rear wheel drive exponents journeying to Carlow. Jonathan Pringle, Gary McPhillips, Ryan Loughran, Frank Kelly, Brian Brogan, Damian Toner, Ed O'Callaghan, Enda O'Brien and Scotland's David Bogie. From a local perspective David Condell and Sam Smyth are the main protagonists, last year they finished fifth and tenth respectively.
In the Junior category, Meath's Gary McNamee (Honda Civic) is the top seed, the entry features series leader Donegal's Michael Boyle along with his current closest rivals Tipperary's Shane Norris and Kerry's Mark Murphy, all in Honda Civics.

Carlow Car Club play host to round 3 of the 2016 Triton Showers National Rally Championship and round 3 of the Suirway South East Stages Championship on Sunday 8th of May. Clerk of the Course Ken Tracey, and his team, have laid on 3 challenging stages, to be run 3 times, with centralisied service to be held once again in the grounds of Carlow I.T.
Carlow Rally has also become famous for the rally held within the rally, the Mk2 Escort Challenge! This attracts top escort drivers from all over Ireland and the UK, all battling it out to be crowned the fastest Escort in the land! Previous winners Wesley Patterson, Daniel McKenna and Frank Kelly are just some of the top names that have previously experienced the Carlow tarmac and hopefully this year will see more big names taking part and challenging for the title.
The launch for the rally will take place in the Seven Oaks Hotel in Carlow on Saturday 26th March. There will be a display of rally cars on the night, as well as a guest speaker, raffle and finger food and if previous launch nights are anything to go by, it's a night not to be missed!
We'll have further press releases in the build up to the rally, but to keep fully up to date with the goings on in Carlow Car Club, please like us on our Facebook page, CARLOWCARCLUB.
