Legendary foursome hit top gear again

FOUR legends of Irish rallying will rekindle its halcyon days on Sunday’s Halloween Historic Rally in Carrick-on-Suir.

Russell Brookes, Jimmy McRae, Kenny McKinstry and Donie Keating are among the entrants in the Classic section, and their presence is certain to attract the crowds to the stages around south Tipperary.

Brookes, who won the Irish Tarmac series in 1989, will drive the “Andrews Heat for Hire” Talbot Sunbeam. He has competed in Killarney in recent years and will be co-driven by Limerick’s Sean Mullally.
