Donagh Kelly and Kevin Flanagan are planning an attack on round six of the 2009 Hankook MSA Northern Ireland Rally Championship, The KPL Utility Services Dogleap Stages Rally.

Based in Limavday the rally kicks off on Saturday 1st August at 10.00am with 10 challenging stages and 45 stages miles for Donagh and Kevin to tackle. This is the first gravel event in the Hankook series and the pair are really looking forward to it.

Donagh and Kevin go into the Dogleap leading the Sunoco Fuels Group N category on 36 points with Mark Massey and Neil McCance hot on their heels both on 35 points. When the Donegal crew reach the finish ramp on Saturday evening they hope to have extended their lead in the Group N category.

The crew are now ready for the tough Dogleap stages and to prepare themselves for the event they completed a short test in Enniskillen recently to set the car up and familiarise themselves with the car.
