Krunching Gears - The Rally Podcast, The best Donegal Rally Ever? 2006 the winners story

The Donegal International Rally in 2006 was one of those special events with an entry list that included Colin McRae, Austin MacHale, Eugene Donnelly, Kevin Lynch, Tim McNulty, Gareth MacHale, Matthew Wilson and Derek McGarrity. Added to the mix that weekend was Andrew Nesbitt securing a deal to bring two ‘works’ Mitsubishi Lancer WRC cars to compete on this iconic rally. As the rally unfolded, an epic battle took place between the two identical works Lancers driven by Andrew Nesbitt with James O’Brien co-driving and Mark Higgins with Rory Kennedy co-driving. A recent discovery in the Nesbitt household of the onboard videos from that weekend has allowed us to retell the tale of the 2006 Donegal International, with Andrew Nesbitt, James O’Brien and Graeme Nesbitt joining us on the Krunching Gears podcast for a special episode to revisit the memories from that fabulous 2006 weekend in Donegal. Unfortunately, there was no camera fitted on Friday. Full onboards from the majority of the stages on Saturday and all of Sunday have been preserved and are now available to view on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@gnesbitt1988 or search Andrew Nesbitt Donegal 2006 onboards We hope you enjoy this fantastic story of how the Donegal International Rally in 2006 unfolded for Andrew & James
