Monaghan crew of Josh Moffett and Jason McKenna were crowned 2015 Valvoline Irish Forestry Rally Champions following a season long battle with Mick O'Brien.
The title decider took place on the Glens of Antrim rally where Moffett set a controlled pace despite suffering a broken wheel on the fourth stage, content to let O'Brien do his own thing. O'Brien though, who had been running as the highest placed champions registered driver for the duration of the event, got caught out on a sloppy section on the final stage stage affording Moffett a bit more breathing space. Moffett eventually came home in fourth place in the McGarrity Motorsport Mitsubishi confirming his championship success.
Further down the field, another champion was crowned as Patrick O'Brien triumphed in the junior championship after a three way shoot-out with Mayo's Alan Moran and Monaghan's Derek Mackarel. O'Brien's win also nets him a nomination for the Motorsport Ireland Young Rally Driver of the Year Award. The rally was won Mark Donnelly in a Subaru Impreza World Rally Car.
