Vintage Show

Noel Doherty and his team hold the world record for tractor building.

They are the All Ireland champions.

However, recently they were beaten by a team from down the country.

They lost by 15 seconds.

It was the first time they had been beaten in two years.

Not only that, but their world record only survived by a second.

Three Way

Tomorrow, in a three-way-challenge, the first one to take place in Moville, they meet their nemesis again.

It will take place during the Vintage Show at Carrick Field.

A big crowd is expected.

There were between three and four thousand at it last year.

Highlight

There was butter churning, threshing mills and a fun fair amongst lots of other things.

However, the highlight will be the world record attempt at the tractor building.

With the strong competition the record could go tomorrow.
