Everyone loves a local hero and James Cullen was certainly that, even before the start of his home event in 1991. Cullen, who had not only put in storming drives on the rally in the past had also acted as Clerk of the Course on the event. By 1991 James was one of Ireland’s top drivers but never quite had the machinery to match his talent. In a garish pink rear wheel Sierra Cosworth, Cullen stayed managed to stay with Bertie Fisher in damp conditions until Fisher crashed out of the event, leaving Cullen to take a hugely popular home win becoming the first Donegal man since 1983 to win the event.
