 With just days to go to the Jewel Donegal International Rally, we're here outside Uptown Cafe in the heart of Letter Kinney to look forward to the event with a Donegal crew who have stepped up a couple of grades for 2016. Beside me is the Suburban Pretza S12B, hired out of Melvin Evans Motorsport, and the Donegal crew that will be taking part in that car this weekend are the National Winners from last year, Manus Kelly and Donal Bart. We'll take the two guys into shot, and they're going to tell us about what their plans are for the weekend. Just before that, Manus, how excited are you ahead of Donegal? It's a dream car to take over three days in your home event. What's the feeling like a few days out? It's unbelievable. I find it hard to sleep these nights, to be honest with you. Look at us, it's a dream come true. A lot of hard work and a great team, pulled together and made this day happen for myself and Donal, and Donal's been a big part of that as well, and we're just delighted to be here. You've already taken victory in this car, and Carlo, a number of weeks ago, you betted yourself on, despite two jump starts early on in the event, so it hasn't taken you long to get on the full swing with the car? No, I suppose we're very fortunate when we got onto the car, we took the car pretty well from the start, and we were very surprised, to be honest with you, especially with jump starts and that as well, but to come to the end of the stage and be quick, it was hard to take in now, to be honest with you. Donal, when did the notion first creep into mind that you were thinking about tackling Donal Gaul in a WRC? I don't know, it was a couple of months ago, as we were talking about it, and then it would be a dream to do it in a car like that, and how would we go about getting one, and Manus went and made a few phone calls, and we got a shock when we figured out how much it was going to cost us to do it, but we put a great team together and Paul Cromies had been a great help to us there, and we could do well rolling, and our sponsors had been very good to us, and got a lot of money together, thankfully, that made it that we were able to do it. This is a special rally, but last year was very special for you, it was one on the national side of the rally, the two-wheel drive category, somethings we're trying to do for quite a few years. Sure, me and this man were around a lot of corners trying to do it, and through a lot of hedges trying to do it, so actually it was great to do it last year, it was phenomenal really, and as I said in interview recently, the two who said it all, the end of it as I suppose, you know it was amazing. And that's your plan now, this year Manus, you've spent a lot of money here, it's costing a lot to do this event at WRC, it's the first plan to get it back to Lerakini on the Sunday. I was out at Odyssey now, and at the end of the day, you know there's a lot of work and effort going on to this, we were going to go out and we're looking forward to getting on to the car and seeing what more we can take out of the car, and you know it's a tricky hour, and hopefully once we get a bit of confidence, we'll be there, there abouts, but at the end of the day, we want to just go out there and give a good account to ourselves and see what happens. It's a long rally, it's a long rally, but you have to drive Manus's rally from day one, don't you? It's supposed to be a case of not getting sucked under to what's going on in Frontier, what's going on behind you, is it? Yeah, well that's how I've seen it, I mean I suppose to a degree every common predator can I set out a strategy or a plan, we have a strategy or a plan that we'll be looking toward as well, and it will be a cautious one, until we get the grips of the car again, obviously we haven't had that much time on it, but at the end of the day, as you know, when every driver, if they're being honest, plans do tend to go out the window once the red mist comes up, and you know, if you're in the mix or whatever, so we're looking forward to the whole scheme of things to see how the plan's out. This car, Donald, is very capable of running and done it all. Gary Jennings has a similar car, the Subaru S12B, I know the guys in Frontier have a lot more experience at this level, but things can happen in Raleigh, and yes, Manus and Donald are outside contenders for the title. Well, I don't know if we're outside contenders, we're definitely outside contenders anyway, I don't know about contenders, you know, those guys in Frontier are very talented, lots of years of experience. Gary Jennings has won the International twice, where we're candidates, one of a number of times, huge experience, so we'll go out and go as hard as we can, and wherever that takes us, Ausina takes us, and hopefully we get home on Sunday evening, and sure, whatever else is a bonus then, really. What are you looking forward to in this car, Manus, because you've driven these stages now for 11 or 12 years, and Donald, you know what this car can do, what are you looking forward to now to tackling this car, what sort of stages do you want to do? I could look at Ausina, the car or such, the car, there's stuff, you know, while we were in Carrado, every stage we're going to do, we're kind of pushing the boundaries more and more, and we're looking forward to doing that again. I think there's a bit more left in the car, you know, I'm looking to get the best out of the car, and, you know, to get out over the top of Nalkala, my favourite stage, will be just to then come through in an S2LV, and watch Declan Boyle, and watch Gary Jennings, Donna Kelly, these lads, all go out of word at Fault Hilt, Eugene Donnelly back in the day, I expected it at all, and to be able to get under one of these and do it yourself now, whether it be good, bad or indifferent, it's just going to be some achievement, like I'm looking forward to it. Can you get a fastest time in Nalkala? Oh, I don't know. I'll be happy to see the back of it, to be honest with you. Man is a very talented driver, and that's something like, you know, that people maybe overlook, you know, the fact that for him to get into that car and go to Carrado and want it, you know, the start is phenomenal, but, you know, there's maybe a different level up again, and so we won't worry about fastest times in Nalkala, we're ever getting over it, but listen, as I said, we'll just go as hard as we can and see who that gets us. Manus, I don't know, I wish you all the best for Donny Gall this year, and get the car home on the Sunday, that's the main objective, but I'm sure you'll be making some headlines along the way elsewhere. Well, I'll see you in a while then. Thanks a lot.
