CIRCUIT of IRELAND HEROES 2

Following on RPM’s highly acclaimed first part of the story of Ireland’s most famous rally, this marathon DVD tells Part 2 of the story and provides further fascinating insights from those who have managed and mastered the Easter classic. `Heroes 2` takes you from one golden period - 1985, when the Group B Supercars were in full flight, to the second golden age of Irish rallying, the World Rally Cars.

Relive the days when the British Rally Championship brought the superstars in their supercars to our Island. The intense rivalry and respect between Bertie Fisher and Austin MacHale. The arrival of the World Rally Cars and with them our home grown heroes like Andrew Nesbitt, Eamonn Boland, Derek McGarrity and Eugene Donnelly.
