This summary is reproduced form Autosport, January 24, 1969
The 1969 Ulster Rally Championship got off to an early start on Friday January 17 with a new event, the Belfast Bangor and Newtownards Motor Club’s Jack Frost Rally. The 240-mile predominantly navigational route on OS Maps 5, 6, 8 and 9 provided Alec Poole with his first Ulster restricted rally win, and it was also a first win for Paul Phelan, who occupied the hot seat in Poole’s beautifully prepared ex-works Cooper S.
