What is recorded here
Carndonagh, County Donegal, Ireland, is the birthplace of Damien Faulkner, the Irish race car driver born 15 February 1977. The small border town gave its name to a man who would later dominate Formula Palmer Audi, win Porsche Supercup races, and chase championships across Europe and America. Faulkner’s story began in that quiet corner of Donegal, where young drivers still imagine themselves racing far beyond the coastline.
