Killarney

<h3>Killarney garage owner Johnny O&rsquo;Sullivan is the only Kerry driver to enter D&eacute;j&agrave; Vu Ireland West in Mayo next month.</h3>
Johnny was part of the organising team on the D&eacute;j&agrave; Vu Tralee event in May. He and his son John drove a Mazda RX-8 as a sweeper car in the event that visited old rally stages in West Kerry earlier this summer.
 D&eacute;j&agrave; Vu Ireland West was originally supposed to run in 2021 but was postponed several times as a result of the pandemic.
 After many false starts the Westport-based event will finally get underway next month. This great motoring re-union of 130 historic rallying and supercars, will leave The Mall in Westport at 10am on October 1 and will follow a non-competitive 180km run through Connemara.
 Spectators are in for a treat as the fabulous array of World Rally, Group 4, and Group A cars travel over some of the special stages that were used on the Circuit of Ireland and Galway International Rallies in the past.
 &ldquo;I really enjoyed the Tralee event, it was great to be part of it but this time we are going as participants,&rdquo; said Johnny, who will be co-driven by his son John.
 They will use the same Mazda that they drove in Tralee earlier this year.
 D&eacute;j&agrave; Vu Motorsport is an organisation set up by former motorsport TV personality Alan &lsquo;Plum&rsquo; Tyndall and former international rally co-driver Beatty Crawford. Their events raise funds for local charities and after the Tralee meeting they donated &euro;40,000 to Recovery Haven cancer charity in Tralee.
 Entries for the Mayo event close today (Friday) and at the time of publication there was only one Kerry entry.
