The Centenerary event of the Acesigns Cork 20 International Rally is delighted to be able to announce that Former Multiple British Rally Champion Keith Cronin is to contest this year’s event in the Irish debut of the new Citroen DS3 R5. This is a great coup for the rally and the Clerk of the Course Kevin O’Riordan and the Munster Car Club are delighted that Keith has chosen our even to debut this new machine.
The car has just landed on Irish Soil so as yet is an unknown quantity on Irish tarmac Rallying but with a driver of Keith’s calibre behind the wheel I am sure that he will be well up on the timesheets and a spectacle to watch out on the stages over the weekend. Keith has won the British Rally Championship three times in 2009, 10 and 12 and was the first Irish Driver to do so since the famous Billy Coleman who was indeed one of Keith Cronin’s hero’s so it is very fitting that Keith will use the Hometown of Billy Coleman; Millstreet to debut this new and exciting machine.
We at the Munster Car Club are delighted to be associated with the next chapter in what will hopefully be a very successful one for all the team at Cronin Motorsport and we would like to take this opportunity to wish Keith and all the Team the very best as he will be tackling events a lot further away from home in the very near future.
The Acesigns Cork 20 International Rally is based in Millstreet in the Greenglens Arena From October 3rd-5th . Please come down and enjoy the free show.
We look forward to a great event and to seeing you all.
Yours in Motorsport
