Walking of Tests
You may walk all Tests on the 1st Run Only Of Each Test except for Test’s 3/9, 4/10 and 7/13 where walking is prohibited as time will not allow.

Seat Belts
Seat belts are mandatory for both driver and passenger on all tests and road sections.
Tyres

Double Drivers
On tests where the start and finish are located in the same location, the 1st driver does the test and then returns to the start of the test to swap drivers. We have put other cars between the double drivers so by the time this car has finished the test the 2nd driver can slot back in.
On Test 3/9 & 4/10 where the start and finish are in different locations, the first driver starts as normal without the 2nd driver. The start marshal will instruct you as to the correct route to return to the start where they can slot back in for the 2nd driver.
Reminder: Only the Driver that has signed on for IRDS can drive on the Public Road.
Starting Tests
We have a full entry and a busy schedule i.e. 26 tests in total so it is important that all drivers arrive at the start of the tests ready to go.

Please help us to ensure that this event is a great success by driving with care and consideration for other road users along the road sections. Any Crew/Driver observed driving in an inappropriate manner will be excluded and reported to Motorsport Ireland.
