Where exactly is it on?


Limerick Racecourse - Not too far away for you really. :lol:

At the moment though there is just the Show & Shine places left unless you want to add your name (along with Dan) as stand-by for any canx on the 1/4 mile.

Got nothing to do with mods Dean. FTO's are great looking regardless, especialy when they're a line of them!

MFFTO - was in Sleek today and one of them was asking for you...

To those in show and shine: The guy there requested that we all be there at the same time so that they can park us up - it'll make their life a whole lot easier as they have to allocate a certain amount of space to us... Can we arange a time so? Say 9.15 maybe?

Also, be prepared for a long day - sign up before 10 and can't leave till 6...

Have you a very small head? Have you anything against pink flowers? If it's good enough for Mondello it's good enough for Limerick. :D

Not to worry, you'll know me, and all the folks from here are the business.


Actually... are there any plans being formed for post Sleek FX...?

It's all kosher guys, 2 teams going ahead. (we just need a Miss Enzo replacement!)

As for rolling road, If anyone's interested in participating, can they PM me, just want to gauge numbers at this stage - trying to sort something with Sleek for the guys doing the sprint but would need to check if we have anyone who's interested first.

I'd be on for both rolling road and 1/4 mile if possible - which it should be as the team 1/4 mile normally doesn't happen till the afternoon giving you a few spare hours in the morning for the rolling road. Shouldn't be too much hassle with access - the place is big enough. I'll be into Sleek tomorrow and I'll have a chat with Peter.

Go for it Ken, there's one space left, and a manual GPX is just the car to fill it.

€50

@ Ken : Most lads do it as a bench mark, run the 1/4 with their car, do a few bits and run it again down the line. Often racing against the clock is the purest measure of drivers responses...

Is there a limit to the amount of 'guests' you can take in to the show in your car? I know they pay anyway but did I see somewhere that each car is only allowed one other person besides the driver? Cause I'd be bringing 2, Drew and my kid neighbour. If theres a limit would someone who has no other person mind taking one of them in in their car just into the grounds?

Could they not just get out of the car, pay, walk through the gate, then get back in?
