As always another great podcast. As a Marshall over the past 10 years the attitude of some Motor clubs and the way marshals have been treated need to be addressed or soon there'll be no marshals. I now pick and choose who I marshal for is it any wonder clubs struggle to get marshals !!!! Keep up the good work guys and it's great to see you past the 1k subscribers 👍
Just listening to Mike in this podcast you can easily know why he and Craig were great friends. I'm so disappointed I got into WRC in 2022, I wish I got into it earlier so I could see Craig in his Citroen days with Scotty and his progression, It's strange and sad and scary that it's 1 a bit years since my hero died.
Brilliant job kevin once again 👏 10/10 .vincent was a legend in the mantas it's a pitty its wasn't the 90 black one I think.that year was bonner at his very best against better cars prodrive m3s . I had the pleasure of meeting vincent one time the saying goes never meet your heroes but its the opposite with vincent. He was a gentleman talked about all his rallying days he was tellin me when we're chatting he never liked the light weight manta that was built originally for brooks he said it was scary over bumps If I'm not mistaken is that the light weight one there .I think ya would go a long way to find someone as natural and stylish a driver as vincent especially behind the wheel of rs1800 escort. Or manta .the only car missing from the collection now is the rs1800 gvx489t x montercalo car that would be a beauty to have sittin beside the manta and turned back into the 83 donegal wining colour scheme again .the guy who worked for Sydney meek has some knowledge. That would make for a fabulous pod cast about his days spent working in Sydney meeks I'd say he has some stories to tell .I didn't know Brooks car was prepared by meek was that just for the ulster rally and circuit of ireland I wonder .was Jimmy's manta prepared also there I wonder
Listened to this last week whilst driving and meant to comment at the time, a lot of the people I've spoken to who are doing the BRC have said that the drop in the registration fee was a key factor in them deciding to do the championship, combined with the lack of needing to use ferries. Great podcast guys, made the 2 hours drive between sites on a night shift fly by 👌
What an unassuming, down to earth Arran is as are the rest of the guys interviewed! Great work Connor and Kevin As usual excellent update info on All the Irish guys in the WRC. 👍
Thank you Peter. Yes Aaron is one of the elite in the WRC and we are so thankful that he takes the time to catchup with us. All the guys are very helpful and always plenty to talk about.
As Spanish rally aficionado living in Ireland, is great to see the right people involved in preserving the history and the heritage. I feel goosebumps when they show the car for first time... Good job!
That turned out unreal. Just finished my own 400 replica and it's hard enough build with normal parts never mind genuine 400 bits. Fair play to Donagh for the restoration and the lads involved. Serious collection there would love to have a look sometime 😍
Great job Kev. Really nice way the boys handling the safety conversation - they were very polite considering where some of the clowns were standing in Galway!
