Press Release: 6^th July 2015: For immediate release.

Orchard Motorsport Lurgan Park Rally

A large number of spectators enjoyed a bumper day out on last Saturday’s Lurgan Park Rally and saw a great display from Kesh’s Garry Jennings as he powered his Subaru to victory, clinching a hat trick of wins. The weather early on Saturday morning was wet and miserable but brightened into a marvellous summer’s day which revealed the true beauty and grandeur of Lurgan Park.

Besides all the Motorsport action, it was a real family day out and as the rally cars roared around the narrow paths, families enjoyed picnics, children’s face painting and fun activities by the lake.

The rally action wasn’t bad either, with Draperstown’s Derek McGeehan in his Mini WRC leading the event initially. Garry Jennings upped his pace as the tracks dried and by lunchtime had moved into a lead he wasn’t to lose. Eleven times previous Lurgan Park winner Kenny McKinstry, this time in a Subaru similar to the Jennings machine, set some cracking times late in the day to move into 2^nd place, usurping McGeehan to 3^rd. There were crews from many parts of Ireland and the UK taking part, and happily there were no major mishaps, although Welshman Melvyn Evans did clip one of his Subaru’s wheels in stage 2 and was forced to retire. The organising North Armagh Motor Club, supported by the Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Council did put in a massive organisational effort, with safety and security the priority.
