The Ulster Automobile Club wish to extend their sincere sympathy to Doreen, Neil and Austin’s wider family circle on his recent passing.
Austin won the Circuit if Ireland Rally in 1974 sitting beside Cathal Curley in a Porsche Carrera RS 2.7.
He also appeared regularly on the Circuit of Ireland podium during the 1970’s and 80’s alongside Bertie Fisher.
A family man, fierce competitor and true gentleman, he will be missed by his family, friends and all those in the Motorsport Community who knew him, may he rest in peace.
