When we first met Jack and Conor, they were up-and-coming drivers who were not even old enough to drive on the roads of Ireland . What they did have was a great attitude, tons of potential, and a set of values that matched our own.

We saw they needed a long-term partner who would deliver much more than a standard sponsorship. We met with the family and formed a partnership that has helped them through many ups and downs to the very top of their sport. That was seven years ago, before any of the BDC, IDC or DMEC titles. Since then the Shanahans and Link ECU have enjoyed great success together, both of us growing to be the best in our respective fields.

Link has gone above and beyond to make the Shanahans part of the family. Our partnership has extended well outside of the drift arenas of the UK and Europe, and part of this was helping bring both Jack and Conor down under to compete in the International Drifting Cup in Sydney in 2018. Jack then travelled onwards to spend time with the Link team in our New Zealand HQ – a very special occasion for all of us.

As Jack said at the time: “As a driver we can sometimes forget what goes in to making some of the equipment used in our cars, but thanks to Link I now have a new appreciation for the time and effort that goes making every individual ECU. Thanks Link, it’s been an awesome experience”.
