Dwane wraps up Hillclimb Championship with two round to go
Share:

Clare’s Rob Dwane has wrapped up the Pack and Pallet National Sprint and Hillclimb Championship for the second time.


Two more victories in the Limerick rounds clinched a second National title for the 22 year old driver from Tulla, Co Clare. He has been unbeaten all season, and Saturday’s ninth win of the year left him in an unbeatable position with just two rounds still to come next month.

It has been a familiar pattern in all rounds this season and as usual, he was well clear of all his challengers, with his OMS eleven seconds quicker than Brian Kirwan’s Peugeot on Saturday’s event, held near Kilmallock in damp conditions.

Third place went to the Reynard of Russell Stanworth, who went on to take runner up spot on Sunday, nine seconds behind the champion over the same course.
