NAPA Auto Parts Renew Title Sponsorship for 2026 Irish Tarmac Rally Championship

23 Feb 2026

NAPA Auto Parts are proud to announce their renewed-for-2026 partnership of the Irish Tarmac Rally Championship (ITRC), which is well underway following the Galway International Rally opener. 

The season opener set the stage for what’s sure to be an action-packed year! Defending champions, Callum Devine and co-driver Noel O’Sullivan, dominated the weekend and took their long-awaited victory on the Galway roads. Meanwhile, Jason McSweeney and Liam Brennan took the win in the historic class, John McQuaid and Thomas Treanor claimed top spot in the modified category, and Graham Roche paired with Trevor Roche were the junior victors. With tricky conditions, Galway threw everything at the teams and brought out some impressive performances. 

While the performances on the stages were mighty, the service park coverage and interviews were not to be missed either. In the more than capable hands of Hollie McRae, there was a new energy and buzz injected into the Irish series, which continues to grow. 

NAPA Auto Parts’ Commercial Manager, Richard Goulbourne says “NAPA Auto Parts are thrilled to be onboard for another year as title sponsors of the championship, for exactly that reason. The continued growth and success of the championship is reaching international audiences while keeping its accessibility at action-packed weekends, like the recent one at Galway, open for all. It’s also great to have Hollie as a part of the team, she helps elevate the exposure and energy of the series significantly.” 

The West Cork International Rally is the next venue for the NAPA Auto Parts ITRC, 13th – 15th March, so be sure to tune in to all the drama as the season ramps up. 

As proud sponsors of the ITRC, NAPA Auto Parts is here to support you all year round. Visit your nearest store to see how we can help keep you moving: https://www.napaautoparts.co.uk/branch-finder.
