🔥🏆 WHAT. A. RALLY! 🏆🔥

RALLY VAN STADEN — WE DID IT! 🇧🇪💨

What a weekend for Sean & Colin as they take their FIRST EVER FIRC VICTORY! 🏆🥇

A brand-new event for the pair meant preparation was absolutely key — and they delivered when it mattered! 💪

A FLAWLESS drive saw them bring the car home 9th OVERALL… but more importantly:

🥇 1st FIRC CREW
🥇 1st BRITISH CREW
🏆 FIRC ROUND 4 WINNERS!

What a result! 🔥🔥🔥

A massive THANK YOU to every single organiser, marshal, volunteer and everyone behind the scenes who put on such a fantastic event. The rally ran like clockwork from start to finish — we couldn’t have asked for more! 👏

We’re already counting down to coming back next year… but first, it’s time to get ready for ROUND 5 IN OCTOBER! 🚀

Huge congratulations to Sean & Colin — FIRST FIRC WIN IN THE BAG! 🏆🇬🇧

Who’s coming with us for the next one?! 👊🔥

Final result in Staden: FIRC winners are the Quigleys, their first victory! Historic winners Anderson/Martin and third historic overall, 2WD winners Richards/Butler, despite superally after brake troubles. Quite an eventful rally we had... but a perfect organisation by AutoMobielClub Staden

🏁 It’s Rally Week! 🏁

After a two-month break in the championship, we’re back in action as we head over to Belgium for Round 4 of the FIRC Championship – Rallye Staden! 🇧🇪

It’s a brand-new event for them, which means new stages, new challenges, and plenty to learn. The Quigley brothers can’t wait to get started and see what the weekend has in store.

We’re looking forward to getting back behind the wheel and giving it everything we’ve got.

🍀 Wish us luck, and thanks to everyone for your continued support – let’s do this! 💪🚗💨

🇫🇷 Rallye Charlemagne – France 🇫🇷

Last weekend, we headed to France for Rallye Charlemagne – a new challenge, a new country, and new roads for the Quigley brothers.

This event attracts some of the biggest names in rallying, including rally legend Sébastien Loeb, so we knew the competition would be fierce.

The rally was run over two days, and the boys got off to a strong start, sitting comfortably inside the top 20. As they settled into the event, the pace continued to improve, with stage times consistently inside the top 15.

Unfortunately, rallying can be a cruel sport. A puncture on the longest stage forced the crew to stop and change a wheel, costing valuable minutes.

Despite the setback, the boys brought the car home in 23rd overall. Without the puncture, they would have been on course for 13th – but that’s rallying!

A huge thank you to everyone who supports us. We’re already looking forward to the next challenge as we head back to Belgium for Rallye Staden. 🇧🇪💪

Sad to hear of the passing of Andy Manston. His work captured so many great moments and memories across our community and will be remembered for years to come.

Thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time. Rest in peace.

Last weekend, Sean and Colin Quigley took on the challenging Rally Wervik in Belgium.

Often regarded as a key shakedown event ahead of Ypres Rally, the entry list was packed with talent, including Jos Verstappen and Freddy Loix, making for a highly competitive weekend.

The rally presented a completely new challenge for Sean, with fast stages, deep cuts, and a level of commitment unlike anything he had experienced before. An early spin on SS1 dented confidence initially, but as the event progressed and the crew gained valuable kilometres and experience, their pace and confidence continued to improve.

By the finish, Sean and Colin secured an excellent result:
🏁 2nd FIRC Crew
🏁 1st British Crew
🏁 22nd Overall

A fantastic achievement against strong international competition and, most importantly, a hugely valuable learning experience for the team.

We would like to thank everyone who continues to support us, and we now turn our attention to our next challenge as we prepare for our upcoming event in France. 🇧🇪
