There’s Clare Stages Rally took place last weekend. The event was a round of the West Coast Rally Championship. Scotstown’s Jonathan Treanor with the experienced Paul Sheirdan on the notes took a commanding victory in the Junior class. Such was the incredible pace of the pair they would have been holding 4th overall if included in the main field. Treanor has already been nominated for the Billy Coleman award and is in contention for the Junior class in the National & Border championships.
Martin McPhillips/Ciaran Tynan finished 16th overall and took victory in class 11R. Aisling McArdle guided Des Lyons to 23rd overall and 4th in class. Ryan Brennan guided Christopher McLaughlin to 31st overall and 4th in class. It was a difficult day for other Monaghan crews with Donagh Kelly/Conor Foley, Niall Maguire/James O’Reilly and James McCarville/Paddy McCrudden failing to finish.
