British rally champion Keith Cronin is set to boost the Ralliart assault on RACMSA Rally of Scotland, the final round of the Intercontinental Rally Challenge in November.

Cronin, from Ireland, won the British title for the first time last month at the wheel of a Mitsubishi Lancer E9. He now hopes to underline his stunning achievement this season by entering the gravel event.

“I’ve proved my pace in the British championship this season against good drivers like Mark Higgins and now I want to see how I get on against the top drivers from the IRC like Kris Meeke,” said Cronin.

Cronin, 23, is also planning to contest more rounds of the IRC next season as he looks to further his experience of competing on international rallies.

“At the moment it will all come down to getting enough sponsorship but if I can get the money then I would like to do some IRC rounds next year,” he said.
