Here at Echo.ie we love to tell stories from across the community, but sometimes even our extensive and wide-ranging knowledge of the area can be left wanting, and so we turn to you for help.

During the mid 1990s (we think it was 1994) photographer Marc O’ Sullivan hopped on his bike and cycled to Tallaght one Sunday morning to capture what has been described as ‘The Snapper meets Top Gear!’.

Joyriding was becoming a real issue across Dublin, and the good people of West Tallaght came up with a smart way to tame teenagers’ urge to steal and rally cars – let the youths do it in a ‘controlled’ way on a dirt track or unused road (we’re not sure) early on a Sunday morning.

As far as we know the track was somewhere between Jobstown and Killinarden, but that is all the information we have at this time.

The year is also up for debate, but as one car is branded with graffiti that says ‘World Cup ‘94’, we’re thinking it is around 1994/95.

We are looking for anyone who has information on these rallies who can help us piece together what exactly was going on so we can tell the story in full and do these amazing images justice.

Thanks in advance for your help – the Echo.ie team.
