Denis Cronin will give Wesley Patterson tough test

On Sunday, they host the Imokilly Mini Stages Rally, a six-stage rally (two stages repeated three times) in the Dungarvan region,with Lisburn’s Wesley Patterson (FordEscort) heading an entry of some 130 crews.
Another vastly experienced driver, Ballylickey’s Denis Cronin, offers the most potent opposition in his ’99 specification Subaru WRC that has S10 technology. The West Cork driver isn’t noted for making quick starts but should have enough to complete the task over the six stags. Killarney’s Ed Murphy in a Ford Escort occupies the number three berth followed by Limerick’s Ed O’Callaghan, who could also give Patterson a torrid time.
