Live Radio coverage for Orchard Motorsport Lurgan Park Rally
With this year’s Orchard Motorsport Lurgan Park Rally only a matter of weeks away the organisers North Armagh Motor Club are delighted to announce that for this year “Live Radio” will be one of the additions to the popular park rally.
Joining commentary regulars Ian Beasant and Richard Young for this year will be Radio regulars Chris Rawes and Xavier McCartan. The quartet will bring all the news and stage end action for regulars in the park this year, as well as listeners worldwide ensuring that none of the high speed action is missed.
Chris Rawes will head for Lurgan Park straight after his attendance providing LIVE ERC Radio at the Kenotek Ypres Rally the previous weekend in Belgium while Xavier McCartan will make his way to County Armagh direct from the Goodwood Festival of Speed where he will have provided commentary over the course of the previous weekend at the famous Rally Stage alongside confirmed Rally Fan and competitor Tony Jardine.
Chris and Xav have worked together in the past on various European and Irish rallies and their experience will add greatly to the Lurgan Park Rally.
Lurgan Park Rally Event Director William Fullerton said this week “It’s great to have Live Radio coming to Lurgan Park this year, it will add greatly to what is already a super event. The club have worked hard to grow and promte the rally and with Chris and Xavier joining forces with Ian (Beasant) and Richard (Young) it promises to be the most in-depth coverage we have had so far that we can now bring to listeners world wide.”
The event website www.lurganparkrally.com will shortly have the links to access live radio accessible via a Laptop, Mobile Phone etc.
Chris and Xavier will cover live Stage end radio, the latest news from the Service Area and catching up with Ian and Richard during the course of the day, not to mention chatting to all the crews for the very latest dramas and news as it happens.
Speaking to the Orchard Motorsport Lurgan Park organisers this week Xavier said “It is a real honor for Chris and I to be able to come to Lurgan Park and provide radio this year. The experience Chris has with his company RawCast and the ERC will be a great asset for the event and for me personally, coming from Banbridge originally, it is going to be magic. I was here the year that Sean Campbell took Linda Jayne from Downtown Radio for a wee spin, when she got wet in the Opel Ascona 400, so Lurgan Park holds great memories for me as well over many years.”
Both Chris and Xavier will tweet during the course of the day from stage ends as well as the service area too.
