Just as a suggestion, there are quite a few car meetings in Ireland (north and south) - modified cars, performance meets (drag runs etc) Track days - show 'n shines etc.

Are we going to see about making an appearance at any of these,

I know member numbers in Ireland are small , but it may increase knowledge and therefore member numbers

And it would be a larf :blackeye:
Buy from TGINCAR at your own risk!!!!!!

Avoid WWW.VEHICLECENTER.CO.UK - it's a scam!!!!!!

I've dropped a line to Modified Motors with our press release, there does seem to be a fair bit happening in Ireland...

Maybe Mark or Pyro can get some things hooked up with the D1 guys - that would be cool

Only just saw this lads...

I'm admin on one of the biggest modified cars sites in the Republic, Racershaven.com. We have very close ties with the Prodrift gang in Ireland (D1) and they use our site as a sub forum for the Prodrift.

I'm sure i could get something organised for a round in Mondello Park and get a load of Zed's with ye're help together. First round in MP is the last weekend of April so that is too soon but there is always 2 rounds in MP each year.

Due to the cancellation of the NW Meet :?: , I think we need to get something organised over here. (I need a zed fix!)

I suppose for convenience of most over here, a meet in the South would be favoured - It also means it's a shorter route for all the mainland zeds ( :?: :lol: ) (prove me wrong........)

Are we going for a weekend - get a b&b base, and sort a route out for each day?

or a day (oh God, that means a very early start :) ), but that would mean none of the black stuff in the evening :lol:

We can get a convoy from the North on the way there & back ;)



and can we sort this soon, as my hug levels are dropping :gathering: :lol: :fool:

Next round of MP is July or August so we could try and organsie an OC meeting in MP compound on the day of the Prodrift event. I'm fairly confident ProDrift would only love the 350z OC's to attend as it would mean great publicity for them as i'm sure lots of people would be drawn to see a big group of Zed's in the one place as they are rare in Southern Ireland.

What does the Chairman reckon ? :gathering:

I'll contact him in the coming days.

What kind of meet would we be looking to organise ?? I'd imagine the best would be to park the cars in the Paddock area of the track...

How many do ye reckon would attend ?? Just rough numbers so i have something to go on when i make contact,

Cheers folks,

Pete.

I think the best thing to do would be get a rough date, then we'll start a thread in here and ask for numbers! Paddock sounds good btw! Last Irish meet had 5 cars, I know that's poor. I've spotted and carded 4 recently, acually talked to 2 of them, still no one comes on here :teeth: we don't bite..............much

Ha ha, i've only seen two and have been in no position to card them :teeth:

OK, August 18/19 is the date for the Mondello ProDrift round that I am proposing for the meet.

It would be great if 10 or so showed up !
