As far as I know we can have as many cars in the show as we like, what Colm is trying to do is get more than 6 in for free.

We have a club stand as opposed to show & shine.

Close enough! A manual gearbox is pretty much essential for an FTO in a drag.
Though you will find it very difficult to get into the 14's (Man Mivec territory).

Go for it man. :D Nice to see what the car can do, and in a safe setting. Plus, its already been shown that the non-mivec can give the mivec a run for its money, so don't let that stop you.

That's organization for you! Putting the 2 of them on the same day isn't a great idea is it!Least its before Dublin so don't have to go in around the city.

I'm up for this (couldn't confirm until now... thought I'd something else on... kids :roll: )

Anyway what's the story? Is there a list still running, or am I too late? Can I still join in with the club?

I suggest the Naas Court Hotel, we can head off in convoy. The first event kicks off @ 10am, Colm, any idea what time we need to be in there at?

If you're coming from Galway, google maps suggests you go through Mountrath. If so myself and Bernard could meet you there.
Was it 8:30 we need to be there by :(

I reckon 8.15-8.30 will be early enough for them. same craic at every show. Leave Naas at 8.00 Leaving Naas at 8.40 will be ok.

We only need to be there at 9pm - was down at Mondello today and was talking to the organisers - colm_mcm
