Ni Festival Of Speed At Maze On 28th April 2012

This has the potential to be a great event!

It's a championship (National B) autotest run by the UAC for the Autotest Drivers Club

More updates coming soon which may see Graham man up and show up for the crowd

Time to stop talking and start walking, get out there and show your skills

i'll second that

The downside to Drifting is the lack of MSA affiliation, and the fact there is never likely to be an affiliation.

Drifting is a judged sport, not a timed sport and that is VERY hard to regulate, you cant argue with a stopwatch or timing beam, you can argue with a bias judge!

I would love to see drifting at the event, finding the right Governing Body (ProDrift, BDC, etc) to bring the Drifting to the event may be harder than just giving them a phonecall and seeing who's coming along for sh*ts and giggles. Either way, its something i will pass back to the organisers and see what can be done.

Yes Graham, everything will be done on permits, MSA stewards will be onsite throughout the event, and scrutineering will take place as per normal for each aspect.

Just to let you all know the entry forms for the car show are now online

http://www.festivalofspeedmazelongkesh.co.uk/wp/car-show-application-forms/

The form is able to be used for both individual entries and for club entries.

Is anyone willing to do the arrangements for RMS???

Oh and if someone would be so kind to throw the link on J44 for me please

You banned again?

No, never been banned, just never really got into it and therefore dont post, also dont wish to be that person only posting stuff like this

I heard this is going to be a 1 day only event now.

It always was, your thinking of this years Banbridge car show.

Removed post!!!

think i heard talk in work that were going to this looking forward to it

is entry fees only accepted by cheque? my cheque book has long since been non existant lol

I'm not sure, I'm guessing cash too, you would need to contact the organisers to find out more.

cool, no worries cheers

Forms for entering your car in the Cash For Kids Car Show HERE

Would like to take the Nova to this, but will be working to 12:30, would I still be able to get in at that time?

no problem is a show-goer, unfortunately I believe the car show is closed off after a certain time early morning.

Unfortunately H&S rules mean no vehicular movements whilst there is a crowd/public

So you are able to arrive on the day and enter your car?

nope, all pre-booked dude. Unfortunately due to H&S again, pre-booking means you have agreed to the terms & conditions and know the times to be there etc as all vehicle movements outside of the competitive events have to be kept to absolute bare minimum.

I know its a bit of hassle, unfortunately the nature of the beast. Something that we can look at changing for next year
