Hi there
Fortunate to own the works prepared Mini Cooper ‘S’ that was rallied in the ‘60’s by privateer Peter Moon & Brian Culcheth. Thankfully both still alive & well so have been able to access quite a bit of historical information. However, Peter tells me that his first International – teamed up with Tony Hennin - was on the ’63 Circuit of Ireland but has no recollection of the result etc.

I have tried contacting the Ulster Auto Club – but no response – would any of you guys have any information – like participants list – results sheets – programmes etc that might assist my quest. Any information would be gratefully appreciated.
