Irish Eyes Smile in Welsh Rally ChampionshipIreland’s Connor McCloskey took victory on Saturday’s (15th June) Severn Valley Stages to close the gap to championship leader Luke Francis from Rhuddlan to nine points in the battle for the Pirelli MSA Welsh Forest Rally Championship.

Premature retirement for the Stratos ..Unfortunately an accident on the final stage of the event saw Steve Perez and Paul Spooner stranded in the Cefn Llwydio undergrowth with the fabulous Lancia Stratos going no further.
We hope that damage is not too serious and that the car will be seen on the stages again very soon. We would also like to thank Steve for the pre-event encouragement he put on social media for others to enter the Severn Valley.
