Not sure how I'd do as a navigator, but if anyone wants to find out for this event, let me know! Confused


Thanks for the various offers - mostly about navigating! I'm now spoken for! Very Happy

Posted on behalf of Derek Brannigan CoC GSMC

The Garda Siochana Motor club are delighted to be hosting our first Endurance Event and we have put together a superb variety of selectives and locations. The selectives which are on a range of surfaces vary in length from 1.2 km to 3km and they will all be repeated so if you make a mess of it on the first loop you can redeem yourself on the second!

The day will start with a challenging run through a quarry near Ballytore, followed by an exciting spin through a delightful farm with some wonderful tracks and surprises.

Crews will then tackle the brickyard ,our first of a number of visits here, so be on your toes and pick your way through here, we then head for another entertaining Co Wicklow farm yard to ensure a real taste of the country air.

These tests are repeated with a lunch-tea stop around 2.30 at Germaines in Baltinglass .

Next up is a visit to Kilrush Airfield where the surface will be smooth so there should be no heavy landings! Then it's a change of surface as PJ's quarry is next and this will prove to be a good test of man /woman and machine.

Just when you thought it was all over we return to another quarry for further punishment, and then to round it off its back to the brick yard for a final selective.

It will be a welcome sight to arrive back to Germaines in Baltinglass for some much deserved sustinence after surviving another Endurance event.

Entries include crews from many different motorsport disciplines including Rallying / Night Navigation / Rallycross and Endurance Trial Specialists. It will be interesting to see how the tarmac terrorists ie Gareth MacHale, Robert Barrable, Sean O'Toole , Brian Murphy, Martin Devine and Ian Downey cope with the different surfaces. Karl and Graham O'Donoghue are very experienced Endurance Trial competitors and will be well used to all sorts of terrain. Rallycrosser Dermot Carnegie has taken to Endurance trials like a duck to water so expect to see him give the Rallying boys a run for their money. The night navigation crews regularly encounter all sorts of terrain and challenges so Rob Lewis, Eoin Longworth and Noel Devlin will no doubt relish the challenge.

Entries are still coming in so if your are thinking of competing , phone me on 087 7980040 and secure your entry to what will be another great fun day out.

We look forward to seeing you on May 25th
