August 30 – 31, 2019
Déjà Vu Motorsport is bringing another of its rally reunion extravaganzas to the friendliest of all rally lands - Donegal, where people don’t just ‘work to live’, they ‘work to rally!’
Former winners, magic motors and celebrated characters will be gathering for DONEGAL DÉJÀ VU in the late summer to recall those legendary days when the sound of rally cars ricocheted off ‘The Hills’ in the North West.
Reacquaint yourself with your Donegal heroes, as we tour the stages that have made the Donegal International a ‘must do’ event. Glen, Atlantic Drive, Fanad, Knockalla – are all on the 120-mile route, with the crowning glory being a trip through the Ramelton Town Stage.
A Gala Dinner of entertainment and personality interviews at event headquarters in Jackson's Hotel, Ballybofey, will round off this weekend of a lifetime.
Registration commences on the 1st. February 2019 when you can take advantage of the ‘Early Bird’ rates up to the 1st. May. Register now for this great north-western occasion and your participation will enable us to help the Donegal Hospice, our designated charity.
Donegal is special for us as Beatty was co-driver with Adrian Boyd when they finished second in 1973 and for me there are so many memories. My first rally commentary, the creation of the Ballyraine Bugle, and all those years covering the event with the RPM television crews. So come and share Donegal’s renowned hospitality in the north west at the end of August.
Alan (Plum) Tyndall & Dr. Beatty Crawford.
