Convoy driver Jack Harris
Donegal and Convoy rally driver Jack Harris has been crowned MI Junior Rally first-class champion following his win at the Cork Forest Rally on Sunday.
The sole national dual-surface championship, the Motorsport Ireland Junior Rally Series (MIJRS) is designed to develop future stars of the sport, with competitors ranging from 14-24 years of age competing across its classes, with prize funding to the tune of over €70,000 on offer as well as a further €15,000 prize fund sponsored by Race & Rally on offer.
Going into his final day, the Donegal youngster, in the newly formed Class 2A, pushed ahead of his two great friends and rivals Ciara Duggan and Jack Kennedy to seal the win in Cork.
The class battle this year was remarkable, with all three drivers having claimed victories on their first year out of J1000.
Harris has enjoyed the Cork Motor Club event in the past claiming a J1000 victory last year.
Taking to social media following his win, Harris said: “Good to get that wrapped up, huge thanks to everyone for making it happen. To my mum and dad and Aaron O Regan on the notes.
“Also, to McConnell Motorsport for delivering the tip-top car every rally.”
