Any takers for the Kenmare tunnel run on the Saturday evening of May 12th. Those of you who have done it before will know its well worth visiting - great backdrop scenery for photos. Accomodation available at €30 B&B in the vicinity for the Saturday night.

Names so far:

1) CJ - Accomodation Sat night
2) MfFTO- Acc Sat night
3) Dave - Acc Sat night
4) Muad - Acc Sat night
5) PajEvo - Acc Sat night
6) JayVR - No Acc
7) Mustang - Acc Sat night

So far thats 2 350Z's, a Rex, a Paj Evo and 3 FTO's - should make for quite a racket. Anyone else want to build on the FTO content?

Topic split messed up - originally posted by MfFTO

If anyone wants to make a weekend of this one the schedule is as follows:

Saturday 12th - 1030 - Tralee - Predator paintball
http://www.predatorpaintballireland.com/index.html

1600 - leave Tralee for B&B in Kenmare
1700 - Arrive in B&B - drop the bags - and head towards the Tunnel
1800 - to whenever we get sick of tunnels

Back to Kenmare for a night not to be forgotten but one which you'll probably not remember (Just ask CJ & Dave).

Sunday morning - Free to talk crap about FTO's over a greasy fry-up and loads of black coffee and maybe head out the peninsula for a few photo ops.

If you don't want to paintball we can meet up in Kenmare on way back from Tralee.

See here for last Kenmare photos - http://www.fto-ireland.com/meets/Kerry_120605/

Those pesky gypses just don't take no for an answer - "Me windscreen is grand bud ! "

Looking forward to the weekend, I'll be leaving reasonably early on the Sunday, I have to meet a guy in Bantry who's gonna take a look at the map on the RX-7.

Rule no 1: No shandy on the table!

It'll be great - really looking forward to this one.. Also - I haven't gotten my zaust fixed so the FTO will be louder than standard

Just back from the Tunnel meet. Absolutely STUNNING area.

Had a blast.

The drive to and from wasn't even that bad - approx 5hours each way. (about half a tank of petrol).

The place we stayed was awe-inspireingly great.
