Round 5 - 2001 Ford Ka Championship
Thirteen Ford KA's will be competing in the fifth round of the 2001 Ford Ireland KA Challenge, which takes place at the Carrick-on-Suir Single Stage Rally based in Carrick-on-Suir on Sunday next, 21st October.Posted: October 16, 2001 4:41 PM
Currently John Carroll (Kilkenny)leads the KA Challenge from Trevor Harding (Cashel) by thirty one points. However there is still everything to play for, with thirty points on offer to the winner of each round. Carroll has set the pace so far this year taking three victories from the first four rounds. However Harding is constantly improving, challenging Carroll on the last two rounds, narrowly missing out on his first victory to secure two second place finishes and move from a lowly sixth position to second in the overall standings.
Mr. Consistency, fourth placed Declan Magee (Enniskillen) is one of the new comers to the 2001 Ford Ireland KA Challenge and is knocking on the door of his first victory having produced some excellent stage times. Fifth placed Gerry Keyes (Limerick) another new comer has provided one of the strongest challenges to leader Carroll scoring second place finishes on the opening and third round of the Challenge, however a non-finish on the last round has dropped him from third to fifth position overall.
