Its hard to beat the pureness and joy of a bone stock MK2 Golf GTi. Sweet, sweet car!

Last hoorah of the 2024 Sligo Pallet Forest Rally Championship on Saturday with the 6th round in Clare.

Theres such a down to earth good vibe watching rally cars racing through the forests of Ireland, and plans are already progressing for an even bigger year in 2025!

@ArdeeSnapper (Incredible) Photos you can hear, vividly 👌

Gravel spec Escort scrabbling for grip on a mid-stage piece of tarmac, the howl of the BDA bouncing off the surrounding trees.

God its moments like this that make Rallying, especially out in the woods, really special!

[Cian Don @CIAND0N]

Always great to see new and exciting Motorsport publications taking off, and if you like Irish Rallying than Double Caution is well worth a look, it is a digital magazine looking at all levels of the sport.

Its also a nice touch when a photo of mine makes the front cover!

Just the casual 52 @ttracesofficial victories caught in mid-air together as @jm130tt leads @M_Dunlop3 over Ballaugh Bridge.

Same location, one shot at 1/10th of a second and the other at 1/6000th of a second, using the same @Sigma_Photo 70-200mm lens helping to capture both the beauty and the speed of the Isle of Man TT.

For reference, here's how things look at full speed, its the rush of wind, dust and grass hitting you that is most remarkable.

[Cian Don @CIAND0N]

Ths TT in a single picture. No barriers, no safety tape and no grandstands, just a few feet of tarmac and a thin strip of grass between spectators and a 160+ MPH race bike. There is nothing in world motorsport like it!

[Cian Don @CIAND0N]

Out round Killarney and West Cork of a Bank Holiday Monday in the Rallye. A blissful experience!

[Cian Don @CIAND0N]

@iamparaic In the hills of San Marino, specifically about halfway through the 'I Laghi' opening stage.

[Cian Don @CIAND0N]

Lighting up the night with a Saxo S1600.

[Cian Don @CIAND0N]

Lots of ooooof in a single shot!

[Cian Don @CIAND0N]

The madness of tonight was much needed, much like the sleep I could badly do with catching up on!

[Cian Don @CIAND0N]

Heading to Rally Legend in San Marino this weekend?? Make sure and get Stage 4 & 7 into your plan as Irish Corner makes a return!

@OliverSolberg01 @RACRMC Hopefully we don't get the storms again like 2021 😆

[Cian Don @CIAND0N]

Great to fill up the Audi with proper decent fuel while up North over the weekend, the old thing ('06 2.0 TFSI) has been a bit shook since the E10 arrived and is throwing engine lights quite often.

The 106 absolutely hates the new fuel, and gets a bottle of Octane Boost now.

Tight-angle Tuesdays!

@pmcgphotos Out of towners with their low cars 😄

[Cian Don @CIAND0N]

@pmcgphotos Looks like a pretty main road by West Cork standards
