This is a super event and always seems to attract great weather. Only down the road from Dublin and a nice compact route too. If you're on the fence get off it and get out!

In the description it says class 3 is eligible for cars registered after the 1st of January 2004 but in the regs it says 2006. In the past few it was definately 2004 not 2006. Can somebody please clarify this. Thanks, Alan.

Alan, Class 3 is for 2006 or newer as per regs (it's a rolling 10 years or younger) Apologies for the confusion.

Great Alan. It's great to have a bit of variety in events. How else will the Starlet beater ever be found?

Request from landowner to park trailers and non-competing cars in the 2nd field in from the road - not in the yard.

Please do not drive on ungathered grass and drive around the perimeters of fields.

Thanks,

Stephen
