theres a place just down the road from the ring that rent out an e36 m3 and an e36 318is, fully road legal race prepared, cage and all, you get helmets too, i'll try find out more for you if you like


I had a look at that crowd already but thanks anyway. The stuff they have is fairly ropey, and with a cage and helmet I would think I was in a race and would be driving at 10/10s instead of 7/10s. Over there, there is only one winner and that is the "Ring" it bites and hard. And it would happen to me (ask anyone) You have to respect that place. The day you don't is the day you get bitten. Even the best have been bitten there.

So far, Tim,Alvin,Steve, Niall O Connell + a gang from MINI2. Timmy is driving over, and we are flying. Going out on Sat. the 30 Sept. and back on Wed. the 4th. I think minipete is also thinking about this as is John Lynch.

Got sorted with the car anyway. Here now in the Dorint hotle over looking the f1 track, and there is bike raceing on. Tim and myself had some very fast laps thismorning when the track opened but it very busy now and the track keeps closeing due to very bad crashes. There are alot of Irish reg. cars here. We meet Steve and the others from mini2 and are haveing a ball. Steve and Tim had a little race and it was Tim that came back first. Anyway I,d better get back to it, hopeing to put in another 5 laps to-day.



Planning next years trip already :twisted:
