Since transferring their allegiance from Ford to Skoda at the beginning of September, Matthew Hirst/Declan Dear have been in imperious form, setting a series of fastest times on the Woodpecker Rally, winning the Trackrod Forest Stages and now, to finish off their Protyre BTRDA Rally Series campaign, taking victory on the Visit Conwy Cambrian Rally. Last year’s winners, Russ Thompson/Steve Link were 3rd overall in their Lancer EVO9 and, in so doing, increased their Fuchs Lubricants BTRDA Gold Star Championship points tally by one which was all that was needed to deny the flying Hirst/Dear runners-up spot!
