Killarney Trackday - 22 August

Anyone keen to join the fun this month at Killarney?

For those of you that havent been before, I HIGHLY recommend pulling though. Its a fantastic way to learn the limits of your car in a "controlled" environment. At least come watch to get a feel for how things work.

Here is some info off the Killarney website:

That's not easy to achieve if you're a) using your own car and b) just not a pro driver LOL
We'll certainly give it a go :burnrubber:

I'd love to watch your video, but I don't have the bandwidth for 280Mb :(
