The results have been checked, the cards marked and the times verified.
As a result, we can unveil the official final leaderboard of the 2002 Crosbie Cedars Hotel Dick Bailey Stages Rally.
Overall victory went, largely as predicted, to Eamonn Boland, ahead of Steve Hendy and Bob Fowden.
Tim Ball came fourth to win Class 13, with David James a spectacular second in that category, and a remarkable sixth overall.
Fifth-placed John Price claimed Class 15, Aaron McHale's Mitsubishi Lancer was top of the tree in Class 4, with Derek Smith's Escort taking the Class 14 honours, Tim Wilson grabbed Class 8 and the O'Rourke combination of Tomás and John did more than enough to secure Class 3.
A full list of class winners will follow.
