Formation of Rallies Council set for green light

IRISH rallying is set to have a Rallies Council following yesterday’s meeting at the Green Isle Hotel, Dublin, where officials from clubs all over the country and other delegates met to discuss several aspects of the sport.

The meeting was called by the Association of Munster Motor Clubs, who recently voiced their dissatisfaction at the way Irish rallying is being run by the governing body, Motorsport Ireland.

The 18 clubs that attended the meeting included two clubs from Northern Ireland along with officials from the Irish Rally Competitors Association (IRCA).
