Higgins wins Rally Isle of Man!

by isleofman.com 21st July 2008
Manxman Mark Higgins and Irish co-driver Rory Kennedy clinched an excellent victory in Rally Isle of Man on Saturday.

They finished 11 seconds ahead of Eamonn Boland and Damien Morrissey to claim a fourth Rally Isle of Man victory in the closest finish in the event's history.

And it was a victory made even more satisfying as the production car pairing beat the Subaru World Rally Car of last year's winners.

Guy Wilks and Phil Pugh were third with Mark's brother David Higgins and Ieuan Thomas in fourth.

The next Manx finishers were Paul Curphey and Mark Perryman who finished in a fine 10th spot.

After his success, Higgins was delighted.
