Cork driver Gerard Lucey (Toyota Special), needing to finish ahead of his championship rival David Forde (Toyota Special), did just that and duly annexed the Munster Autocross Championship at the final round of the series at Clonakilty this afternoon.

Leading from the start, Sean Gallagher and co-driver, Liam Costello (Escort Cosworth) dominated the Midland Mini Stage Rally in Carrick on Shannon and ran out convincing winners by 39 seconds.
