Show Notes
Tonight on The Irish Rally Podcast we take a very family themed approach to our look back on the Wilton Recycling Donegal International Rally. 3 Siblings competing in the same event at the same time isn't unprecedented but it is somewhat rare with the Harris, Kearney, Driver and Kelly families among those achieving this feat over the years. This year it was the turn of the Eves Family with Dylan taking home his class, while Kevin and Corey fell away on the final loop after very entertaining drives. We find out what got these 3 boys into rallying and discover how they keep the whole thing going. We will also be joined by another set of brothers in Richard and David Moffett, with arguably one of the best rally stories you will hear from any rally over the years. We get insight into why David went back to the Starlet. We talk about the enterprising element to the family. And at the end of the show we will have a full rundown of all the class winners.
