Before the 2012 rally series, this is a nice series of clips of Australian Rally Championships 2011 Privateer Champion Charlie Drake who hails from Derinagree. Watch out for the special on Charlie’s Rallying and Business which will be shown on LTV2 this week.
It’s been a big week for Charlie Drake. The 32-year-old Derinagree man took home the Australian Rally Championships Premier League title last weekend, after two battling stages in Victoria. Celtic Motorsports were three points behind going into the rally and needed to win both of their heats in Warragul, Victoria, to take the 2011 title.
And to follow up his big win, he got married to Narelle today. Congrats on both counts to Charlie.
Read the article and interview with Charlie which appeared on the Irish Echo (an Australian Paper) a few days ago on his triumph in Warragul, and on his wedding. [read more …] “Big week for Charlie”
